As 5G networks are being rolled out globally, the evolution of the 5G NR standard continues. With Release 17, 3GPP will extend the frequency support of 5G NR mmWave bands into the unlicensed spectrum up to 71 GHz, a frequency band traditionally used by non-cellular standards like IEEE 802.11ad and 11ay. To address new testing challenges related to this bandwidth extension and to evaluate the performance of the latest generation RF transceiver chipsets, Rohde & Schwarz and Sivers Semiconductors teamed up to test RF transceivers for 5G NR up to 71 GHz.

Rohde & Schwarz Drivers under VEE - Installation and Troubleshooting

20-Dec-2012 | AN-No. 1MA035

With R&S®FE170 frontends, Rohde & Schwarz introduces innovative up- and down- frequency converters, providing both high performance and a simple setup with R&S®SMW200A signal generators and R&S®FSW signal and spectrum analyzers. No additional external sources are required, with all devices automatically recognized and all necessary calibration data transferred automatically.

Together with R&S®FE170 frontends as up- and down- frequency converters, and an R&S®FSW signal and spectrum analyzer, this video demonstrates how to generate, transmit over the air, and analyze a 4 GHz bandwidth single carrier signal with 16QAM modulation at 148 GHz.

Precision-engineered for sub-THz research, the R&S®FE110ST/SR frontends extend the frequency range of connected signal generators and signal and spectrum analyzers to 70-110 GHz , allowing you to explore this vital spectrum . With excellent signal performance in a compact design and seamless integration with the R&S®SMW200A and R&S®SFI100A vector signal generators and FSW signal and spectrum analyzer

Software tool for fast and repeatable optimization of signal analyzer RF front-end settings

The signal conditioning in the RF front-end of signal analyzers is crucial to achieve the best performance with respect to image-suppression, noise-floor, dynamic range and other RF-key parameters.Precise signal levelling is especially important for complex measurements like Error-Vector-Magnitude (EVM). To minimize the measurement uncertainty from test system contributions over a wide range of different levels, the RF front-end needs to be adapted continuously according to the signal characteristics, signal power and frequency - ideally using an automatic levelling algorithm.This document describes the approach of a waveform specific, on-site characterization of the signal analyzer: For each waveform and frequency of interest, the instrument is evaluated in a first step. With this additional data, a fast and repeatable auto-levelling can be performed during the actual measurement.
