LTE-IoT is in its early commercial phase with multiple pilots and test networks currently active across the globe. Keysight's Nemo Outdoor measurement solution and Nemo Analyze analysis tools are fully capable of testing NB-IoT and LTE-M networks. Engineers can use the test applications in early lab and field testing, device benchmarking, network acceptance, network benchmarking, or service level agreement verification.
Telia tested narrowband internet of things (NB-IoT) and long-term evolution (4G), category M1 (LTE-M) technologies successfully in the lab and with live networks using Keysight's Nemo measurement system. Nemo Outdoor and Nemo Analyze RF measurement solutions used for verifying coverage and analyzing the network's key performance indicators.
In the pilot, they enabled the measurement of Telia's IoT service in a network delivered by Nokia. During the initial phase, their measurement applications were used to test LTE-IoT RAN together with the core network, after which they offered solutions to test the coverage of LTE-IoT compared to the existing LTE service area. These test phases are crucial to operators for verifying network performance as well as for understanding how operators can offer LTE-IoT services commercially to new applications and service businesses.
