TEST & MEASUREMENT APPLICATION NOTES AND WHITE PAPERS

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.
Characterization Of An Amplifier With The Combination Of Network And Spectrum Analysis
The general characterization of complex DUTs such as amplifiers requires the measurement of several parameters. Thanks to its versatility, the R&S^®ZNL is an economic solution that can characterize a variety of DUTs both via network analysis and spectrum analysis.
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.
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.
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.
