Demystifying 5G – Phase noise of clock and LO components in 5G base stations

Massive MIMO and beamforming in 5G base stations impose stringent requirements on ADC and DAC sampling clocks and the LO signals in 5G base stations. The video demonstrates a clock generator and an RF synthesizer from IDT and shows the measurement of the phase noise, contributed by these components.

The demystifying 5G video series discusses main topics related to 5G including requirements, timeline, frequency bands and key components.
