TEST & MEASUREMENT APPLICATION NOTES AND WHITE PAPERS

• eUICC Profile Handling

  This application note describes the eUICC compliance and remote eUICC provisioning test solution based on R&S CMW500/CMW290 and COMPRION eUICC Profile Manager software tool with focus on M2M devices.

• Noise Figure: What Is It And Why Does It Matter?

  Noise figure is a key parameter that quantifies receiver performance by measuring how low a power a signal receiver can detect. This white paper covers the basic principles of noise figure, how to make sense of its specifications, how it is measured, and why this parameter is important in high-performance applications.

• Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) Explained

  Explore the evolution of VSWR from its humble beginnings in telegraph lines to its vital role in modern RF engineering, illuminating its practical applications and underlying principles.

• Power Supply Control Loop Response Measurements (Bode Plot)

  The R&S^® RTx-K36 frequency response analysis (Bode plot) option provides a low-cost alternative to low frequency network analyzers or dedicated standalone frequency analyzers. 

• Transmit And Receive Testing Of Digital Waveforms Using R&S®CMA180

  The compact R&S®CMA180 Radio Test Set allows straightforward tests on devices that use analog or digital modulation and demodulation formats. This application note focuses on the use of the digital radio capabilities for measurements on radio transceiving devices in terms of their functionality and parameter characterization. Also shown is how to use the instrument with the various software tools available from Rohde & Schwarz for creating and evaluating digitally modulated signals.
