Keysight Technologies, Inc., a leading technology company that delivers advanced design and validation solutions to help accelerate innovation to connect and secure the world, has been selected by the World Standardization Certification & Testing Group (WSCT), a third-party test house based in Shenzhen, China, to speed regulatory, performance and positioning validation of 5G devices to be launched in domestic and global markets, including Greater China, America, Europe, Africa and the Middle East.
WSCT selected Keysight's 5G test solutions for certification of 5G mobile devices as well as validation of mobile phone E112 caller location (universal European emergency number) functionality in compliance with European Union (EU) regulation.
Kallen Wang, chief executive officer of WSCT commented, "As a one-stop test house for inspection, identification, certification and testing services, WSCT relies on Keysight's comprehensive range of test solutions for 5G protocol, radio frequency and radio resource management conformance, as well as regulatory compliance. Our certification services support launches of a wide range of mobile device models, spanning different functionality and performance levels available at various price-points."
WSCT selected several Keysight 5G test solutions, including:
- S8706A Protocol Carrier Acceptance Toolset, part of Keysight's network emulation solution portfolio, enables WSCT to certify 5G devices according to 3GPP specifications and validate E112 caller location functionality per EU's latest mandatory requirements.
- S8714A UXM 5G RF Application delivers rapid radio frequency (RF) testing, including validation of specific absorption rate (SAR).
- EXG Signal Generators and X-Series Signal Analyzers offers cost-effective parametric testing of components and functional verification of receivers.
"Keysight is pleased to be selected by WSCT to provide 5G test tools that enable vendors to rapidly deliver certified 5G devices across multiple geographical regions," said Cao Peng, vice president and general manager for Keysight's Wireless Test Group. "Early access to a wide range of conformance and regulatory test cases result in accelerated device testing."
Keysight's 5G new radio (NR) network emulation solutions support the latest 3GPP Rel-15/16/17 features, enabling leading chipset and device makers to quickly and confidently develop designs with advanced 5G capabilities for consumer, industry and government applications.

06/05/2025 | Kelly Dack -- Column: Target ConditionIf you caught the movie “Barbie,” you may have laughed at its over-the-top utopia where every day begins with perfect weather, perfect smiles, and a perfectly pink commute. But beyond the plastic glam, the film subtly critiques the illusion of perfection—a message that feels surprisingly relevant to the world of PCB design and manufacturing.

The Chemical Connection: Reducing Defects in Circuit Board Production
06/04/2025 | Don Ball -- Column: The Chemical ConnectionWe all agree that in any manufacturing process, reducing defects in your product induced during manufacture (aka increasing yields) is a good thing. Doing so, however, can be a source of contention and frustration. I don’t pretend to be an expert in this field, because most of my work involves feasibility studies for new concepts or testing improvements made to existing equipment. High yields were usually not a factor; it’s simply about having enough data to prove or disprove a concept or seeing whether improvements to equipment design actually work. However, here are some observations I made visiting quality shops where high production at high yields was important.

It’s Only Common Sense: Trust Is All You Need
06/02/2025 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: It's Only Common SenseTrust is all you need, and the best way to build it is by showing that others have placed their faith in you. This is where social proof becomes a game-changer. Social proof is a psychological phenomenon that influences people to follow others’ actions, especially in uncertain situations. By leveraging social proof, businesses can attract customers and close deals more efficiently. Here’s how to incorporate social proof into your strategy and watch your closing rate soar.
