TEST & MEASUREMENT APPLICATION NOTES AND WHITE PAPERS

  • Small Cell Testing In FR2

    In the era of 5G, small cells have become pivotal in network densification. Explore the essential testing aspects of small cell devices throughout their product life cycle.

  • Wi-Fi Performance In A House With Two Routers

    Wireless InSite’s Communication System Analyzer provides capabilities for assessing the performance of LTE, WiMAX, 802.11n, and 802.11ac systems. This example investigates WiFi throughput coverage in a house provided by 802.11ac routers operating at 5 GHz using an 80 MHz bandwidth.

  • Effortless Testing Of Direction Finding Devices – Amplitude Based

    Together with multiple coupled R&S SMW200A vector signal generators, the R&S Pulse Sequencer allows performance characterization of all types of direction finding equipment such as devices that use amplitude comparison, interferometric or time difference of arrival (TDOA) techniques. 

  • Crowdsourcing Versus Mobile Network Testing

    The need for an objective evaluation of mobile network quality and performance drives two fundamentally different approaches, crowdsourcing, and mobile network testing.

  • Characterizing Parasitic Components In Power Converters

    With the rise of wide-bandgap semiconductors like GaN and SiC, characterizing parasitic components in power converters is crucial for maintaining efficiency and preventing performance issues.

TEST & MEASUREMENT SOLUTIONS

The dB-9002 from dB Control is a custom-mounted Dual Instantaneous Frequency Measurement (DIFM) unit designed to operate in the C, X, and Ku-band frequency range and provide highly accurate measurements at 100 ns to CW pulse width measurements.

The dB-3908 TWT Amplifier (TWTA) is designed to use two wideband, periodic permanent magnet (PPM)-focused TWTs to amplify CW, AM, FM or pulse-modulated signals. The dB-3908 offers higher saturated output power and improved harmonic performance when compared to a single TWT approach.

The SI893x’s 0 to 2.25 V specified input range is ideal for isolated voltage sensing. The Si8935/36/37 provides delta-sgma modulated output with flexible options for external or internally generated clock.

The Si894x is a galvanically isolated delta-sigma modulator which outputs a digital signal proportional to the voltage level at the input. 

Producing a system that excels in performance and reliability is easy when you have System Design and Applications Engineers with years of experience, Customer Service with global reach, and products that are known for performance and quality. AR has this very organization and product offerings. AR is here for you at each step to ensure that the system design, integration, and support of your EMC or RF system complies with your goals.

D-TA Systems offers the MFEL 1000 portable ELINT data collection solution designed to provide automatic spectrum scanning for signal activity (pulse or CW), PDW extraction and de-interleaving to tracks where signal characterization is performed automatically. The system includes a built-in 6 TB (expandable to 18 TB) SSD data storage for I/Q data collection in both on-site and off-site analysis.

Model HP 4268A is a capacitance meter designed for testing high value multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) designs

Radar simulation systems (i.e., RF sources and/or receivers) must perform to an exacting minimum standard if they are to accurately prove the field worthiness of EW systems.
