Keysight Becomes Validated Test Tool Provider for FiRa® 2.0 Technical and Test Specifications

04/02/2025

Keysight Technologies, Inc. has had a test tool validated for the FiRa 2.0 Certification release, covering physical layer (PHY) conformance testing. The latest FiRa PHY Technical and Test Specifications introduce enhancements to the performance and interoperability test requirements for ultra-wideband (UWB) device conformance tests.

UWB is a low energy radio technology used for high-bandwidth communications for high-precision ranging over a wide spectrum. In dense and challenging environments, UWB offers better performance in terms of precision, reliability, security, and power consumption than other communications technologies. The FiRa 2.0 Certification Program offers more rigorous testing for UWB device makers to enable compatibility and functionality across diverse applications, including smart homes, automotive systems, and industrial automation.

To assist device makers with meeting the challenges of testing against FiRa 2.0 specifications, Keysight introduced support for FiRa 2.0 test cases in its UWB Test Solution. As a FiRa validated test tool for the new specifications, the UWB Test Solution provides a wrap-around toolset covering the full design lifecycle from R&D to certification to manufacturing.
