Key facts
The state-of-the-art R&S®SMBV100B vector signal generator sets standards for its class. Ultra high output power, fully calibrated wideband signal generation and intuitive touchscreen operation make the R&S®SMBV100B ideal for all kinds of applications.
Always in line with the latest major digital communications standards, such as 5G NR, LTE and WLAN, the SMBV100B is the preferred test solution for receiver and component characterization.
The R&S®SMBV100B has many GNSS options that transform the instrument into a reliable, full-featured GNSS simulator. Advanced simulation capabilities can run realistic and complex yet repeatable GNSS scenarios under controlled conditions.

Measured EVM performance vs. Level
Measured EVM performance vs. RMS level (R&S®SMBV100B equipped with R&S®SMBVB-K31 and R&S®SMBVB-B32 options).
To meet demand for higher modulation bandwidths, the R&S®SMBV100B comes with a high performance baseband. The intelligent internal real-time frequency response correction in the generator enables extremely high amplitude flatness of < 0.3 dB (measured) across the entire bandwidth of 1 GHz.
Measured frequency response
Measured frequency response across maximum RF modulation bandwidth of 500 MHz at different carrier frequencies
Ultra high output power and excellent level accuracy
When equipped with the appropriate options, the R&S®SMBV100B can produce output power of up to +34 dBm (measured at 1 GHz) and the specified level increases to +25 dBm across almost the entire frequency range.
After calibration, the generator must repeatably and precisely set level values for each test sequence. Here, the R&S®SMBV100B delivers top performance with a measured level repeatability of < 0.09 dB.
Maximum output power (measured)
Measured output power for base unit with high power option (R&S®SMBVB-K31) and additional ultra-high-power option (R&S®SMBVB-B32).
The R&S®SMBV100B has several GNSS options that transform the instrument into a reliable, full-featured GNSS simulator. Advanced simulation capabilities can run realistic and complex yet repeatable GNSS scenarios under controlled conditions. This includes realistic modeling of GNSS orbits, signal propagation effects and system errors as well as realistic modeling of the user environment.
Simulation of a combined GPS/GLONASS/BeiDou/Galileo constellation for a moving GNSS user
The intuitive operating concept makes the R&S®SMBV100B very ergonomic and practical. The customizable instrument is also ready for future requirements.
SMBV100B user interface
R&S®SMBV100B can be tailored to specific needs at any time
Configuring the instrument hardware requires just a few decisions. Six hardware options are available. Software options can be added on site at the customer facilities with keycodes.
The instrument comes fully calibrated at the factory. No downtime is needed for servicing after upgrades to extend frequency range, bandwidth or output power.
