Overview of the Keysight P7000A Base Station Measurement Automation Solution
The Keysight P7000A Base Station Measurement Automation Solution consists of integrated software
and hardware to accelerate the development of automated test on 5G NR Base Stations (gNB)
according to the 3GPP Technical Specification 1 38.141-1 and 3GPP Technical Specification 38.141-2
for Chapter 6, 7 and 8; this same solution is used to test an O-RAN Radio Unit (O-RU) according to the
O-RAN.WG4.CONF Conformance Test Specification 2.

All tests run on the Keysight KS8400A PathWave Test Automation Software architecture, which is
centered around a Test Automation Engine, built on OpenTAP, and can be extended with plug-ins.
• Plug-ins come in packages; a package is a versioned collection of plug-ins.
• P7000A packages extend the capabilities of the Test Automation Engine and include:
o Packages for 3GPP TS 38.141-1 & 3GPP TS 38.141-2 Chapter 6 & 7 Test Cases:
- P7000A 5G RF Parametric Test Suite package provides 3GPP TS 38.141-1 &
3GPP TS 38.141-2 Chapter 6 FR1 & FR2, Chapter 7 FR1 & FR2 test cases,
and a Test Report Generator plug-in for reporting test results
- P7000A MDL and Test Plan Generator package provides a Manufacturer’s Declaration List
(MDL) Editor application and a Test Plan Generator application
o Packages for 3GPP TS 38.141-1 & 3GPP TS 38.141-2 Chapter 8 Test Cases:
- P7000A 5G NR Performance Test Suite package provides 3GPP TS 38.141-1 &

Tests Defined by O-RAN.WG4.CONF for an O-RAN Radio Unit (O-RU)
The P7050A1CNF O-RAN Radio Unit UC-Plane FR1 conducted FDD base automated toolset and the
P7050A1CNT O-RAN Radio Unit UC-Plane FR1 conducted TDD base automated toolset together with
PathWave Test Automation software and P7000A Base Station Measurement Automation Software are
parts of integrated software and hardware that create a solution to accelerate the development of
automated test for Conformance and Design Verification Test (DVT) of an O-RAN Radio Unit (O-RU).
All tests for an O-RAN Radio Unit run on the Keysight KS8400A PathWave Test Automation Software
architecture, which is centered around a Test Automation Engine, built on OpenTAP, and allows
configuration and execution of test plans through a Graphical User Interface (GUI).
Tests for an O-RAN Radio Unit do not require any additional packages and therefore does not utilize the
Package Manager. See the Keysight P705xA User’s Guide for an O-RAN Radio Unit (P7050-90002).
