IxVeriWave & WaveTest : Wi-Fi Test Solutions

"Validate, benchmark, and assure next-generation Wi-Fi networks with confidence.”

What are WaveTest & IxVeriwave?

Keysight Wi-Fi Test Solutions combine the latest WaveTest platform with the proven IxVeriwave solution, offering comprehensive tools to validate Wi-Fi performance, QoS, and user experience in enterprise, service provider, and device environments.

• WaveTest is the modern, cloud-ready platform designed for Wi-Fi 6/6E/7 and high-density client validation.
• IxVeriwave is a widely adopted solution, trusted for validating Wi-Fi infrastructure, APs, and controllers under realistic conditions.

Together, they provide a complete validation framework to ensure Wi-Fi networks deliver the reliability, capacity, and user experience demanded by today’s digital services.

Key Features

🔹 WaveTest (Next-Generation Platform)

• Support for Wi-Fi 6/6E/7 with OFDMA, MU-MIMO, and advanced QoS validation.
• High-density client emulation: simulate thousands of concurrent users and IoT devices.
• Cloud-native orchestration: scalable, flexible test campaigns.
• QoE validation: real-time analysis of throughput, latency, jitter, roaming, and application performance.

🔹 IxVeriwave (Established Solution)

• Proven Wi-Fi infrastructure validation for APs, controllers, and Wi-Fi networks.
• Multi-client emulation: test real-world usage scenarios with a wide range of clients.
• QoS/QoE metrics: MOS scoring, packet loss, latency, jitter under load.
• Interoperability testing: validate compliance with Wi-Fi standards and mixed client environments.

🔹 Common Capabilities

• Stress-test Wi-Fi deployments under realistic traffic conditions.
• Validate roaming and handoff performance.
• Benchmark security mechanisms (WPA3, authentication protocols).
• Generate detailed performance analytics and reports for lab, pre-production, and compliance.

Benefits for the Client

• Future-ready: validate readiness for Wi-Fi 6/6E/7 deployments.
• Performance assurance: ensure APs and controllers meet QoS and QoE requirements.
• Scalable validation: from small labs to carrier-grade deployments.
• Security confidence: test WPA3, authentication, and encrypted Wi-Fi traffic.
• User experience focus: measure not just throughput, but application-level performance.

Why Keysight Wi-Fi Test Solutions are Different ?
