Wamicon 2022

5G time division duplex (TDD) networks rely on rapid and precise uplink/downlink switching – a conduct that places significant demands on test instrumentation for true characterization, analysis, and validation. TDD is a vital technology for 5G networks, enabling spectrum usage efficiencies and the dynamic allocation of resources for traffic asymmetry. Test and measurement (T&M) solutions, therefore, must be able to capture 5G TDD network performance, a task that compounds in difficulty for high frequency mmWave applications with switching time intervals compressed to further extremes. This presentation examines the capabilities that are essential for today’s test instruments to gain an accurate understanding of the advanced, high-speed, and exceedingly precise performance of 5G TDD networks. 

The presentation first delves into switching speed requirements for 5G TDD networks. The value of precise timing measurements is underscored by breaking down a single 5G TDD frame into its subcomponents (subframes, slots, and symbols) and correlating the effects of wider subcarrier spacing and shorter slot length at higher mmWave frequencies.
