The R&S SMW200A vector signal generator is used to configure synchronization signal blocks (SSB) including periodicity for the 5G NR signal, and to configure control channel (CORESET) and data channel (PDSCH) to carry data in the specific subframes. Signal analysis of the 5G NR personality is demonstrated on the R&S FSW signal and spectrum analyzer.

The R&S®SMW200A vector signal generator supports signal generation according to the 28 GHz pre-5G specification available at www.5gtf.org. Combined with the R&S®FSW signal and spectrum analyzer supporting an internal 1.2 GHz analysis bandwidth makes this setup ideal for in-depth component characterization such as for 28 GHz power amplifier development.

The example shows an error vector magnitude (EVM) measurement on a two-channel 5.2 Gsample analog to digital converter from Texas Instruments using the R&S®SMW200A vector signal generator, the R&S®SMA100B RF and microwave analog signal generator and the R&S®VSE vector signal analysis software from Rohde & Schwarz.

The R&S®AFQ100A baseband generator and the R&S®SMW200A vector signal generator are used to generate a 39 GHz carrier frequency signal for the transmission. The R&S®FSW signal and spectrum analyzer downconverts the received signal and provides digitized I/Q samples to an external software tool to calculate channel impulse response and channel transfer function.

It also demonstrates phase noise emulation using the R&S SMW200A vector signal generator and how this function can be used to test correction algorithms to compensate for CPE in a receiver such as a mobile handset. 5G NR PTRS - how to emulate phase noise | Rohde & Schwarz Why does 5G NR require phase tracking reference signals?
