R&S QAR Quality Automotive Radome Tester - Specifications

28-Jan-2021 | Press Releases

Rohde & Schwarz has enhanced its R&S QAR quality automotive radome tester, a tailored solution for radar integration testing to analyze and evaluate the radar compatibility of radomes and bumpers. With the new R&S QAR-K50 single-cluster measurement software, OEMs and tier 1 suppliers are able to achieve measurement results very close to those obtained with a vector network analyzer (VNA) and a quasi-optical (QO) setup, but in a nondestructive and 2-dimensional way. In addition, users benefit from the intuitive R&S QAR operating concept.

16-Nov-2021 | Press Releases

The new R&S QAR50 from Rohde & Schwarz is the ideal solution for measuring radomes and bumpers in production. The tester's innovative design ensures short measurement times and accurate, reproducible results with a very attractive price/performance ratio. A highly modular software concept allows the R&S QAR50 to be adapted to individual requirements.

Together with its partner Löhnert Elektronik, Rohde & Schwarz has introduced a fully automated turnkey solution for bumper production radar transparency testing based on the successful R&S QAR50. The lightweight and compact setup of the R&S QAR50-R facilitates precise positioning of the measurement antennas, allowing faster, more accurate and convenient testing. This leads to higher throughput and yeilds as well as more flexiblity to adapt to different DUTs, for End-of-line (EOL) measurements of bumpers and other exterior parts.

Application video: QAR50-R robotic solution For larger samples such as grills or bumpers, it might be more applicable to move the sample instead of the measurement device. Therefore, the QAR50-R was developed. Follow me on a visit to our Partner Löhnert Elektronik where the QAR50-R is produced.

QAR50 Videoseries This first video introduces the basic principles of microwave imaging and the R&S®QAR50 in general. This includes measurement clusters, reflection & transmission, traceability and test speed.

QAR50 Videoseries, Radome parameters and their effect This video focusses on measurement parameters such as attenuation, reflection and inhomogeneities, their importance for radar sensor performance and how to measure them with the R&S®QAR50.

It compares the QAR50 microwave imaging solution with a quasi-optical vector network analyzer and shows how the optimum thickness of a radome can be calculated. QAR50 Videoseries, Material characterization This video is about the very beginning of bumper and radome measurement: material characterization.
