The new R&S VSESIM-VSS signal creation and analysis tool speeds the development process for RF components. It is particularly useful for the wireless, automotive, and aerospace and defense industries as well as for manufacturers of active components and systems. New wireless and satellite technologies offer ever wider frequency ranges and involve increasingly demanding requirements. Realistic […]

Why voice over 5G relies heavily on LTE
Mobile phones are still phones. 5G devices need the ability to fall back to LTE when network support isn’t available. Here’s how and why.
Scopes feature 5.6-in full HD touchscreen, 1 million wf/sec update rate
The new R&S RTO6 digital oscilloscope offers six different bandwidth models from 600 MHz to 6 GHz and a sample rate of up to 20 Gsample/sec. The fully integrated test solution for the time and frequency domain, as well as protocol and logic analysis, supports design engineers from all industries. The instrument features a high waveform update rate, excellent […]
Test system for automotive radar sensors electronically simulates even laterally moving objects
A radar test system from Rohde & Schwarz simulates driving scenarios for testing radar based advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and radar sensors used in autonomously driving cars (AD) entirely over the air. The test solution consists of the new R&S AREG800A automotive radar echo generator as a backend and the R&S QAT100 antenna array […]
A scope-based technique for optimizing EMI input filters
A simple oscilloscope setup can size common-mode and differential-mode noise filtering components separately and more accurately. Marcus Sonst, Rohde & Schwarz Any switched-mode power supply (SMPS) needs an EMI (electromagnetic interference) input filter to avoid disturbing power lines. Input filters generally contain both common-mode and differential-mode filter elements, and the two are rarely optimized separately. […]
Measure power in complex RF signals
IMS2021: Live event was never in doubt
While the International Microwave Symposium will also hold a virtual conference, exhibitors insisted on a live event albeit with COVID-19 restrictions.
UWB test gear characterizes angle of arrival, phase difference of arrival
Engineers testing UWB devices now can combine the R&S CMP200 radio communication tester and WMT software service to implement automated wireless manufacturing testing from Rohde & Schwarz with the high-precision delay lines XT-200 from Colby Instruments to perform measurements in conducted mode including calibration and verification. In UWB technology, the distance between two devices is […]
DSS lets 5G and LTE share spectrum
Dynamic spectrum sharing of 5G and LTE networks addresses the need for spectrum, particularly at mid-band frequencies. Here’s how it works.
Benchtop linear power supplies come in single and dual-channel versions
New R&S NGA100 series power supplies are available in four models, providing a choice of single and dual outputs with up to 35 V/6 A per output, or 100 V/2 A per output. Single-output models supply up to 40 W, dual output models up to 80 W power. The dual model outputs can be combined […]
