National Instruments and TU-Dresden collaborate on 5G mobile network research
Research on 5G wireless systems is in its infancy as 3.5G and 4G systems are still largely in development. TU-Dresden previously pioneered 3G systems research in conjunction with the Vodafone Chair Mobile Communications Systems, which is dedicated to cutting-edge research in wireless communication technology.
“National Instruments RF and communications tools will enable us to design OFDM prototyping systems within a single software design flow,” said Dr. Gerhard Fettweis, head of the Vodafone Chair Mobile Communications Systems. “With the modular NI PXI system, we can start with a SISO link and expand to complex MIMO configuration with limited modifications to the code, exceeding an 8×8 setup, as our research evolves.”
“TU-Dresden is one of the world’s top research universities, and they’re leading the way in groundbreaking research to prototype next-generation wireless communication systems,” said Dr. James Truchard, president, CEO and cofounder of National Instruments. “We are proud to accelerate the development of future technologies that will ultimately impact anyone who uses a cellphone.”
