The release of the first 5G NR standard was a critical event on the path to commercialization of this innovative technology. 5G NR creates complex RF planning challenges, due to the use of high-frequency millimeter waves, together with new advances such as flexible numerology and advanced antenna systems that can leverage Massive MIMO.

Having supported a series of pre-standard trials with Tier One operators and their vendors, InfoVista’s product team has developed a comprehensive set of capabilities to accurately model 5G NR networks and automate key planning functions.

Planet 7 for 5G RF planning & optimization was launched at this year’s Mobile World Congress. The propagation modeling capabilities of Planet and its unique ability to simulate Massive MIMO make it the best choice to help you efficiently plan 5G networks.

Join InfoVista’s product manager for Planet RF planning software, Gregory Donnard, to learn:
