Interlab Test Products, a business unit of 7layers and a leading provider of test management systems & test solutions for wireless technologies, announces extension of Interlab Test Solution DEVICE\/UICC covering 5G New Radio (NR) network test requirements of the cellular device SIM card interface.<\/strong><\/p>\n Germany, 24 Oct. 2019<\/strong><\/p>\n Today the Interlab Test Solution DEVICE\/UICC for 5G NR USIM\/USAT got listed as TP 302 at Global Certification Forum (GCF). The 5G NR USIM protocol conformance testing extension of the Test Solution, defined in\u00a03GPP specification TS\u00a031.121 \u201cThe Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) already plays a central role for authentication and secured access requirements to 3G and 4G mobile networks and will keep its core functionality for 5G\u201d, says Magdy Ahmed, Product Manager at Interlab Test Products. \u201cTo cover the new requirements for 5G, GCF has introduced two new work items (WI#508-NR \/ WI#509-NR).\u201d It is expected that the corresponding GCF USIM certification will become mandatory in 2020. The Interlab Test Solution DEVICE\/UICC for 5G NR USIM\/USAT will meet these GCF certification requirements.<\/p>\n Existing 3G and 4G customers of the Interlab Test Solution DEVICE\/UICC can upgrade their test platform to operate 5G NR USIM protocol conformance testing. The first test case package for 5G NR USIM protocol conformance testing will be available on time with the GCF certification requirements. \u201cThe Interlab Test Solution DEVICE\/UICC for 3G and 4G was already successfully developed on a Rohde & Schwarz Tester\u201d, explains Magdy Ahmed. \u201cAnd of course, we continue our partnerships with Rohde & Schwarz in creating customer values for mobile device UICC testing\u201d, confirmed Magdy Ahmed. \u201cHaving good partners by your side is the key to success for any further developments.\u201d<\/p>\n Interlab Test Solution DEVICE\/UICC <\/strong><\/p>\n The Test Solution covers all GCF and PTCRB requirements for cellular technologies such as 3G, LTE, Cat-M1 and NB-IoT in interaction with USIM and USAT at the UICC. With the 5G extension network operators, chipset and module manufacturers as well as test laboratories can also ensure 5G conformance of their devices in accordance to GCF and PTCRB requirements and will continue to benefit from highest automation and synchronization capabilities of the Test Solution.<\/p>\nUSIM Rel-15, is based on the new 5G NR radio communication tester R&S\u00aeCMX500. The Test Solution is developed in close cooperation with the global communications test and measurement solution provider Rohde & Schwarz.<\/p>\n
