The Keysight 2018 State of 5G Survey shows more than half (54 percent) of companies surveyed are already adopting 5G technologies with 46 percent citing securing market leadership early in the 5G lifecycle as the primary driver for their investments. And, more than two thirds of respondents said they are actively seeking 5G test solutions to accelerate the development or rollout out of 5G technology.

“To meet customer demand and establish market leadership, equipment manufacturers and service providers need early access to 5G test tools and capabilities,” said Kailash Narayanan, vice president and general manager of Wireless Devices and Operators at Keysight Technologies. “Keysight’s close collaborations with industry consortia and market leaders, deep technical experts, and end-to-end 5G test solutions are empowering the mobile industry to accelerate 5G product design development and commercialization.”

Most respondents (63 percent) of the Keysight survey expect higher reliability and lower latency to create the biggest impact from 5G technology. These aspects are important to address new business opportunities. Respondents indicated that the top three benefits of implementing 5G technology are faster networks, greater IoT enablement, and connected car proliferation.

By leveraging new and existing technologies including wider bandwidths in millimeter-wave frequencies, massive MIMO and virtualized networks, 5G will deliver a multitude of benefits to meet customer demand across a wide range of vertical industries.

“The fact that many respondents are looking for test solutions means that those inventing and deploying the technology want to ensure their implementations perform as expected while securing a market leadership position,” stated Roger Nichols, 5G program manager at Keysight Technologies. “Many of these technologies, or combinations of technologies, are new to the radio communications world, which is why the industry is looking for tools to help them analyze, design, measure, and validate designs that rely on these technologies.”
