TEST & MEASUREMENT APPLICATION NOTES AND WHITE PAPERS

• An Introduction To Direction Finding Methodologies

  All direction finding methodologies are meant to determine the physical or geographical location of a source of radio frequency energy. The choice of an appropriate direction finding methodology to use for a given application is largely a function of the target signal's characteristics, such as frequency and modulation, but is also influenced by the propagation environment as well as cost and complexity.  Recent advances in the development of hybrid direction finding methodologies attempt to overcome some of these restrictions and increase accuracy by using a combination of methodologies.

• Accurately Measure Your UWB Device's Time Of Flight

  The R&S®CMP200 radio communication tester together with the R&S®CM-Z300A time of flight kit provides an accurate setup for time of flight measurements – in validation, calibration and certification.

• R&S®FSWP And The Validity Of Positive Phase Noise Values

  This white paper reviews the classical spectrum analyzer measurement of L(f) and its shortcomings. It also discusses how modern phase noise test sets measure phase noise and avoid the limitations imposed by direct spectrum measurements, especially with the use of the R&S®FSWP.

• How To Perform A Radiated Emissions Measurement

  Explore the intricacies of setting up radiated emissions testing with this guide, covering everything from antenna placement and polarization to accurate frequency selection and signal measurement.

• Testing A 24-28GHz Power Amplifier Using The 5G New Radio Test Standard

  In this white paper, we will introduce some of the main challenges in test and measurement of a device at mmWave frequencies, with a 26 GHz pioneer band defined for the UK between 24.25 - 27.5 GHz.
