TEST & MEASUREMENT APPLICATION NOTES AND WHITE PAPERS

Introduction To RNVNA, A Multiport Network Analysis Solution
In many RF applications it is necessary to make multiport measurements. The RNVNA, a multiport network analysis solution, links up to 16 1-Port analyzers together into a multiport network analysis system. Each of the 16 analyzers will make individual vector reflection measurements and scalar transmission measurements from port to port.
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.
S-Parameters For High-frequency Circuit Simulations
Understanding the meaning of S-parameters, how they are measured, and their limitations can lead to more meaningful RF- and microwave-frequency simulations.
Solution For BCI Applications
Rohde & Schwarz provides a compact solution for conducted immunity tests with a signal generator, RF solid-state amplifier up to 350 W, power sensors, and test software for frequencies from 4 kHz to 400 MHz.
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.
