Rohde & Schwarz and VIAVI Solutions have presented their integrated solution for conformance testing of O-RAN Radio Units at the recent O-RAN ALLIANCE Global PlugFest Fall 2023, hosted at the i14y Lab in Berlin – supported by Deutsche Telekom and EANTC and i14y consortium partners.

It can be used with different software’s (Qualcomms QSPR, R&S®VSE, R&S®WMT) and gives comparable results through the different device development and production stages. This video showcases a test procedure with the R&S tool R&S®WMT. R&S®CMP200, FR2 Small Cell devices, Qualcomms QSPR, R&S®VSE, R&S®WMT, test procedure This video showcases a test procedure with the R&S tool R&S®WMT.

Signal analysis is performed by the R&S VSE software running directly on the RTP oscilloscope.

The new test solution consists of the R&S®RTP164 high-performance oscilloscope used as a measuring receiver, and the 5G analysis options of the R&S®VSE vector signal explorer software. R&S®VSE performs measurements in line with 3GPP specifications. The setup also enables MIMO-specific measurements and to flexibly compile the test results.

RF signal analysis using VSE with your scope. This video shows how the R&S®RTO oscilloscope with its vector signal explorer (VSE) software can be used to analyze wide band pulsed RF signals in terms of frequency, phase, amplitude and timing.

Downconvert and Downsample acquired RF signals to IQ data Downconvert RF signals in the oscilloscope and use resulting IQ sample for further analysis with the R&S VSE software or external tools. Downconvert RF signals in the oscilloscope and use resulting IQ sample for further analysis with the R&S VSE software or external tools.

This summary intends to give a fast overview for generation and verification of FM chirp signals using R&S Instruments and software Tools.

Instrument automation and result evaluation are based on R&S®Quickstep sequencing software and R&S®VSE signal analysis software, which has been speed optimized for cloud operation using so-called micro-services.

Analysis with the R&S VSE software and the Transient option enhances the characterization of radar signals. Additionally, the acquisition of two FE110SR signals with a maximum bandwith of 10 GHz in a frequency range of 70 to 110 GHz is possible the RTP oscilloscope. Use the R&S RTP Oscilloscope with the R&S External Frontend FE110SR to debug your automotive radar devices.
