The bits that travel over wireless networks also travel over wired networks, ultimately over cables and PCB traces as serial data streams such as Ethernet, PCIe, and others. All serial data transmissions must contend with jitter, the difference in timing from the ideal. Rohde & Schwarz has added jitter analysis to its RTO (600 MHz…

Scopes get jitter decomposition feature to aid debugging efforts
A new option for the R&S RTO and R&S RTP oscilloscopes helps development engineers gain more insight into the individual jitter components of their transmission interface. Now they can separate jitter into its random and deterministic components and view results flexibly for effective debugging. The Rohde & Schwarz decomposition algorithm uses a parametric signal model […]
Instrumentation checks out Wireless Emergency Alerts data
Rohde & Schwarz, in collaboration with LG Electronics Mobile Comm. U.S.A., Inc., have successfully verified Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA) 3.0 features related to GEO-Fencing using an LG G8 ThinQ mobile smartphone. The new Enhanced Targeting Rules imposed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the United States, requires wireless providers to reach 100% of the […]
Validation for 5G comes to integrated LTE, WCDMA, GSM conformance test system family
The Global Certification Forum GCF and PTCRB certification organization have accepted first test-case validations in various FR1 and LTE band combinations using the new 5G RF conformance test system R&S “TS8980FTA-3A” from Rohde & Schwarz. The solution is the latest version of a successful family of RF conformance test systems and the only one in […]

Power supplies help develop battery-powered equipment using ≤ 20 V and 6 A
The R&S NGL200 and the new R&S NGM200 series offer the same superb performance and specifications to supply extremely stable outputs with a minimum of residual ripple and noise. Devices that switch from a few microamps in sleep mode to several amps in active mode benefit from the exceptionally fast load recovery time of less […]
Oscilloscope technology – What lies ahead?
Oscilloscope technology advanced rapidly from its early 19th Century roots through the triggered sweep and digital/flat-screen transformation in the 1980s. The trend has accelerated. Bandwidth and sampling rates have expanded exponentially. Additionally, new features and measuring and display capabilities have emerged. In this context, one wonders what lies ahead. The major oscilloscope manufacturers maintain robust […]
Software features new classification for Stratum mining protocol
Rohde & Schwarz Cybersecurity has enhanced its R&S PACE 2 deep packet inspection (DPI) software to include Stratum protocol classification capabilities. The DPI engine can now reliably classify and therefore enable network security solutions to block malicious mining activities. A new category of cryptocurrency-based cyberattacks that mine cryptocurrencies on the victims PC over the internet are […]
