Anritsu has been participating actively in the 3GPP standardization of these new technologies at the same time as working closely with the major infra-structure, chipset and terminal developers. By taking this approach Anritsu will uniquely provide market-leading LTE test solutions, on time, to assist our customers in meeting their goals.

Release 7 of 3GPP includes study items to introduce MIMO and 64QAM as transmission technologies to increase data rate of the air interface, and IMS phase 2 introduces all IP network capability. This will reach the limit of what is possible in data rates for the existing 3G networks based on 5 MHz W-CDMA technology. Release 7 has been designed as an upgrade for existing HSPA networks, and is sometimes called "HSPA+”, or “evolved HSPA”.
