Hello and welcome to Setting the Standard, the podcast about wireless radio standards creation from the Wireless Innovation Forum.  I'm your host and Communications Director of the Forum, Stephanie Hamill. In this episode, I'm talking with Austin Egbert of Baylor University, coder of the  new AFC Test Harness and Mark Gibson of CommScope our 6 Ghz Committee Chair. The two worked tirelessly to bring the 6 GHz Band to operation, recently approved by the FCC.Timestamps:1:00 Austin: what brought about the creation of the test harness; talk of the R&O, requirements, and more (automating 128 test vectors!!).2:37 Mark: reflections on the CBRS experience in comparison, AFC being simpler.3:55 Austin: an expansion on why AFC was simpler than CBRS, and what makes them different, with one aspect that made it more complicated (e.g. power levels).5:00 Mark: DoD participation, test lab participation.6:20 Impact of the test harness, simplicity of it, ease and speed of the system in comparison to the SAS experience.8:00 Austin: on the modular nature, lots of tools and functionality.9:15 Mark: Lessons learned and how this tool was made to be replicatable and repeatable for future use.Links:https://6ghz.wirelessinnovation.orgAFC FAQ: https://groups.wirelessinnovation.org/wg/6-GHz-Cmte-SG/wiki/afc-faq Join our mailing list:  https://mailchi.mp/wirelessinnovation/email-sign-up About Baylor University SMART Hub The Hub for Spectrum Management with Adaptive and Reconfigurable Technology (SMART Hub) is a multi-disciplinary collaborative directed by Baylor University that is working to solve tomorrow’s wireless spectrum issues today.
