Keysight automates complex coexistence testing

Keysight’s Wireless Coexistence Test Solution (WCTS) is a scalable platform for validating wireless device performance in crowded RF environments. This automated, standards-aligned approach reduces manual setup, improves test repeatability, and enables earlier identification of coexistence risks during development.

To replicate real-world RF conditions, WCTS integrates a wideband vector signal generator. It covers 9 kHz to 8.5 GHz—scalable to 110 GHz—with modulation bandwidths up to 250 MHz (expandable to 2.5 GHz). A single RF port can generate up to eight virtual signals, enabling complex interference scenarios without additional hardware. Nearly 100 predefined, ANSI C63.27-compliant test scenarios are included, covering all three coexistence tiers.

Built on OpenTAP, an open-source, cross-platform test sequencer, WCTS delivers scalable and configurable testing through a user-friendly GUI and open architecture. Engineers can upload custom waveforms and validate test plans offline using simulation mode, accelerating test development and reducing lab time.
