EMC and Wireless Test and Measurement: Challenges and Solutions for Connected Vehicles By Garth D’Abreu, Director, Automotive Solutions at ETS-Lindgren

Abstract: In the rapidly evolving industry of autonomous, electric and hybrid vehicles, the ability to successfully provide vehicle level antenna pattern measurements as well as EMC measurements to verify the performance of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) will be key to the future of this market and address public safety concerns. The automotive trends in wireless capabilities for high data streaming, incident detection warning, anti-collision/adaptive cruise control radar, wireless entry and vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) and vehicle-to-cloud (V2C) communication are just a few of the features impacting the functionality of today’s modern vehicles. This presentation details the challenges presented by these market demands and how innovative testing solutions help drive the technologies forward to real-life applications.

The 5G New Radio: Implications for EMC and Antenna Testing By Jari Vikstedt, Director, Wireless Solutions at ETS-Lindgren

Abstract: With the continuous development of wireless technologies and their tight integration with various electronic/computer/communication/devices and increased use in connected and autonomous vehicles, performance verification testing in a real world environment, at both the system and the intra-system levels, presents difficult challenges. Test methodologies need to adapt to support 5G New Radio Single Input and SISO NSA, TRP, RSE and TIS measurements. Increasing frequency ranges such as 600 MHz - 6 GHz present their own test challenges. This presentation addresses the challenges generated by the 5G New Radio and mmWave applications through system planning and innovative wireless performance verification testing methodologies.
