Insights
Keysight's Frost & Sullivan award confirms its early leadership in 6G testing, positioning it advantageously in the next wireless evolution.
Keysight's recognition as Frost & Sullivan's Global Company of the Year highlights its strategic positioning at the forefront of 6G development. This isn't merely a ceremonial award—it validates Keysight's early-mover advantage in the eventual transition from 5G to 6G technology.
The company's achievement in securing the FCC's Spectrum Horizons Experimental license represents a significant competitive advantage. This regulatory clearance gives Keysight access to sub-terahertz frequencies (95 GHz to 3 THz)—critical testing grounds for future 6G applications. Being first to secure this access allows Keysight to establish testing protocols and methodologies before competitors, potentially creating industry standards that others must follow.
Keysight's digital twin capabilities deserve particular attention. By enabling complete 6G network emulation, the company addresses a critical pain point in wireless technology development: reducing the astronomical costs associated with physical field testing. This approach could create a virtuous cycle where faster, cheaper testing accelerates 6G development, which in turn increases demand for Keysight's solutions.
The company's strategic university partnerships with Northeastern, Malaga, and Singapore University of Technology and Design reveal a forward-thinking approach to talent acquisition and intellectual property development. These relationships likely give Keysight early access to cutting-edge research while building relationships with future engineers and scientists in the field.
While 6G's commercial deployment remains years away, this recognition demonstrates Keysight's commitment to maintaining technological leadership through multiple wireless generations, positioning it to capture value as the industry inevitably progresses beyond 5G.

Frost & Sullivan's independent benchmarking analysis evaluates companies across two key dimensions: strategy effectiveness and execution. Keysight excels in both areas by aligning R&D investments with emerging 6G market needs while delivering scalable, high-performance solutions. "With solutions spanning RF and network testing, Keysight offers a broader and more flexible approach than its competitors. These tools enable researchers to generate and analyze signals across the spectrum and recreate complex and dynamic environments, accelerating 6G research," said Sujan Sami, research director at Frost & Sullivan.
Keysight was the first vendor to secure the US FCC's Spectrum Horizons Experimental license, gaining access to sub-terahertz frequencies from 95 GHz to 3 THz. This early regulatory breakthrough enabled Keysight to validate ultra-high-speed, low-latency 6G applications, such as augmented reality and holographic communications — setting a new industry benchmark.
The company's integrated approach combines high-speed hardware with intelligent software, like Vector Signal Analysis, creating a powerful test and validation ecosystem. Its digital twin capabilities enable researchers to emulate complete 6G networks, that could help reduce field testing costs, accelerate development, and optimize AI/ML model training for RAN and PHY layer improvements.
Keysight's strategic focus on AI/ML also enhances testing accuracy. Its collaborations with leading universities—including Northeastern University, the University of Malaga, and the
By providing test capabilities for non-terrestrial networks (NTN), including satellite and aerial systems, Keysight supports 6G's vision for ubiquitous connectivity — even in remote and underserved regions. The company's holistic customer engagement strategy and brand consistency earn it strong trust across the wireless value chain.
"We're honored to receive this recognition from Frost & Sullivan, which reflects our commitment to enabling the next generation of wireless innovation," said Giampaolo Tardioli, Vice President, 6G and Next Generation Technology at Keysight. "Advancing 6G requires test solutions that deliver precision, reliability, and deep technical insight, areas where Keysight continues to lead. From working with partners to establish a pre-6G test setup using centimeter-wave (cmWave) spectrum to advancing AI-for-RAN with solutions to validate AI models, our decades of expertise and industry partnerships uniquely position us to support the breakthroughs that will define the future of connectivity."
Frost & Sullivan congratulates Keysight for setting the pace in 6G innovation and execution. Its contributions are shaping the future of wireless communications, enabling its customers to design, test, and deploy next-generation networks with confidence.
