Rohde & Schwarz Mobile Test Summit 2026 – Following the format of last year’s summit, Rohde & Schwarz will host Mobile Test Summit 2026 as a virtual event. The event will be split across three sessions on October 7, 14 and 21. Wireless communications professionals are invited to register for individual sessions on the Rohde & Schwarz website. Each session covers one of three pillars of the emerging 6G standard: (1) AI-native RAN, (2) integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) and (3) non-terrestrial networks (NTN).
- The series will open on October 7 with a session on AI-native RAN. This architecture unites network operations and AI computing on a single platform. Participants will learn how this technology improves network performance, along with what it takes to validate and test it.
- On October 14, the focus will shift to integrated sensing and communication (ISAC). This technology puts existing radio infrastructure to double use, simultaneously transmitting data and sensing the surrounding environment. The session will cover the current market outlook, use cases already emerging across industries and the ecosystem’s growing momentum. It will close with a look at what ISAC means for testing.
- The final session, on October 21, will focus on non-terrestrial networks (NTN). NTN combines satellites, high-altitude platforms and drones to extend wireless coverage beyond terrestrial infrastructure, reaching regions that ground-based networks cannot. Attendees can look forward to a discussion of current market trends and deployment opportunities. They can also expect to learn more about the technical challenges still standing in the way of truly ubiquitous, uninterrupted connectivity.
Together, the three sessions will cover both the current state of 6G research and its expected future trajectory. The purpose is to provide participants with a well-rounded perspective on the wireless ecosystem.
Alexander Pabst, Vice President of Wireless Communications at Rohde & Schwarz, says: “Now in its sixth year, the Mobile Test Summit has become a trusted meeting point for the wireless community. This year, we’re turning our attention to 6G, with sessions covering AI-native RAN, ISAC and non-terrestrial networks. Beyond exploring where these technologies are headed, we want to give participants practical, actionable insight into what they mean for testing and validation as the industry moves toward commercial 6G.”
There are three sessions for each topic, and participants can choose the one that best fits their time zone.
