Abstract

The evolution of 5G-IoT systems (5G - Internet of Things) has had a significant impact on how modern IoT devices are viewed and has opened numerous new use-cases for such technologies. As the new technologies become widely available, more IoT-technology-driven devices are being adopted in many branches of the industry and more of the bussiness subjects opt for the new IoT-enabled devices over the standard devices. For some businesses, choosing the correct technology may proove challenging as their knowledge in the particular topic may be limited. In this paper we present the hardware design and initial test cases of a modular Mobile Probe for validating 5G-IoT technologies. The probe is intended to help bussinesses to make informed decisions for the particular use-case based on the autonomous measurements of various 5G-IoT technologies parameters. Due to it’s simplicity the probe could also serve as an educational platform for students. After the description of the hardware design, initial testing results for NB-IoT and LTE Cat-M technologies are presented and discussed in terms of the probe capabilities and compatibility with given technologies.
