Cobham Wireless, a provider of wireless coverage and mobile communication systems, has partnered with China Mobile to trial an LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) Dual Connectivity system for 4G and 5G networks. The system demonstrates how throughput and capacity can be improved across a network, by utilising radio resources from multiple mobile cells simultaneously, Cobham said. Cobham will exhibit the system at Mobile World Congress 2017.
Cobham Wireles will show how service providers can test their networks in preparation for deploying 5G connectivity. This includes testing anticipated 5G downlink throughput of up to 10 Gpbs, which ensures it can perform to the high standards for delivering 5G services.
The UE Simulator to be showcased, supports multiple simultaneous 5G air interfaces which are compatible with various wireless standards, including 3GPP’s 5G New Radio (5GNR)

Cobham Wireless today announced that it has joined forces with China Mobile to trial an LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) Dual Connectivity system for 4G and 5G networks.
This move to trial superfast 5G mobile networks ‘is a positive step forward that could help accelerate the commercialisation of next-generation mobile technology in the UK’, says Dr Li-Ke Huang, research and technology director at Cobham Wireless.
Cobham Wireless today announced it will demonstrate the industry’s first software-defined 5G user equipment (UE) simulator, based on Verizon’s open 5G standard, which can test downlink throughput of 10Gbps.
“Virtualising the solution provides operators with the flexibility to test technology and share hardware, software and licenses via the cloud,” said Cobham tecjnology director Dr Li-Ke Huang,
Cobham Wireless is also planning to demonstrate 5G testing tools, including what it called the “industry’s first” software-defined 5G user equipment simulator. Cobham said its tool is based on Verizon’s open 5G standard.
