Conclusion
To achieve greater bandwidths and higher spectral and spatial efficiencies, 5G system developers and component manufac-
turers will need to overcome considerable technical challenges. This e-book has discussed some of these challenges and the
use of the AWR Design Environment platform to simulate amplifier and filter performance under 5G operating conditions. With
dedicated virtual testbenches in AWR VSS software applying 5G-compliant signals to front-end radio components, designers
can perform accurate measurements of these devices prior to manufacturing. Synthesis tools for both amplifiers and filters
work with AWR Microwave Office software to accelerate design starts, while AWR AXIEM and Analyst EM analyses provide fully
integrated design verification. Together with automated T&M solutions, 5G component manufacturers have the tools to
successfully develop these next-generation products.
