Keysight Selected by DSP Research to Deliver Radio Frequency Regulatory Certification of 5G Devices
February 17, 2023 | Keysight Technologies, Inc.Estimated reading time: 2 minutes
Keysight Technologies, Inc., a leading technology company that delivers advanced design and validation solutions to help accelerate innovation to connect and secure the world, announced that DSP research, a certification and test laboratory, recently selected Keysight’s 5G device test solutions to deliver radio frequency (RF) regulatory certification services in Japan.
Under Japanese law, mobile devices must be certified that they do not transmit RF power outside of their allocated frequency band before they can be connected to telecommunications networks. DSP Research provides certification of 5G devices, such as smartphones, laptops, and wearables, to specifications outlined by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (MIC), ensuring interference with other radio services is limited. With rapidly evolving 5G specifications and an explosion in the number of connected devices, DSP Research faces challenges in scaling its certification services to meet increased demand.
Keysight helps DSP Research meet this challenge with the E7515B UXM 5G Wireless Test Platform running the S8711A Test Application software, by saving time through automated testing and validation of devices to MIC specifications for RF interference. DSP Research is also leveraging Keysight’s global expertise in device testing and validation to increase coverage of smartphone certifications where vendors have been pre-validated as well as address evolving 5G regulatory test methodologies.
In addition, Keysight is providing integrated OTA test solutions that combine network and channel emulation capabilities with a compact antenna test range (CATR) anechoic chamber. These solutions support RF, signaling and radio resource management (RRM), electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), as well as demodulation testing of devices in nearly any form factor. Test engineers can also perform antenna pattern measurements, spurious emission testing, and validate the performance of a device over a wide temperature range using these solutions.
Nakanishi Nobuhiro, Chief Executive Officer of DSP Research, said: “DSP research appreciates that Keysight’s test solutions prevent disruption of radio communications and ensure e?cient use of radio waves. Keysight’s global footprint and comprehensive range of test capabilities enable DSP Research to quickly and efficiently certify new 5G devices in compliance to evolving standards and regulations.”
Peng Cao, Vice President and General Manager for Keysight’s Wireless Test Group, said: “Keysight is pleased to provide DSP Research with 5G test solutions specifically designed to ensure that cellular devices comply with regulations relating to cellular protocols and RF interference. Keysight is committed to developing 5G device test tools that help vendors, test houses, and mobile operators improve test productivity which accelerates 5G commercial roll-outs.”

Target Condition: From Dream House to Drill Files
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.
