As the market for mobile radio, IoT, satellite and radar applications grows, Rohde & Schwarz has introduced a new approach to the system amplifier challenge. With unprecedented output power, bandwidth and market-leading noise performance, the compact R&S^®SAM100 offers users a unique proposition.

T&M specialists Rohde & Schwarz and VIAVI Solutions verify their respective test equipment on correct implementation for 5G NR and LTE. This exchange between the two companies will help accelerate UE commercialization. The verification is based on the R&S CMX500 5G NR wideband radio communication tester by Rohde & Schwarz and the TM500 network tester for user equipment (UE) emulation by VIAVI.

The Rohde & Schwarz technology company ends a successful 2019/2020 fiscal year despite a difficult global economic environment and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Thanks to a consistent diversification in the business fields of communications, information technology and security, the company enjoyed another successful year of growth. Rohde & Schwarz has thus proven a reliable technology partner even in difficult times.

To analyze wideband signals for 5G NR and other future wireless standards, a wide analysis bandwidth is key. To meet this testing need also with a limited budget, Rohde & Schwarz brings an exceptional internal analysis bandwidth of 1 GHz to its mid-range R&S FSVA3000 signal and spectrum analyzer.

As wireless network operators roll out 5G NR in the millimeter wave spectrum, it is critical to ensure continued reliability of E911 calls and accurate determination of location in mobile devices.

CATARC (Tianjin) Automotive Engineering Research Institute Co.,Ltd. has selected leading global test and measurement supplier Rohde & Schwarz to supply a full vehicle antenna test (FVAT) system and support services. The system is required to optimize the performance and location of antenna modules, verify compliance with wireless and EMC standards and ensure proper operation of a vehicle’s wireless system. These aspects are essential for the development of emerging technologies such as autonomous driving.

In order to reduce complexity, costs and efforts for TRM testing, Rohde & Schwarz concentrates on test and measurement solutions to maximize the performance of AESA designs with highest precision instruments and automation of complex test scenarios.

Bandwidth is the most important aspect of an oscilloscope. To support design engineers in current and future design challenges, Rohde & Schwarz is introducing an attractive promotion for selected oscilloscope models: when purchasing an R&S RTO2000 or R&S RTP, now customers can upgrade the bandwidth with no extra costs.

The SkyBridge Tools test manager system now supports the R&S Cable Rider ZPH for on-site base-station testing and RF network analysis. Technicians using the low-cost analyzer from Rohde & Schwarz in combination with SkyBridge Tools can reduce the time associated with testing and verifying distributed antenna systems (DAS) by as much as 90%.

With the new R&S FSW-B8001 option, the well-established R&S FSW high-end signal and spectrum analyzer now supports an industry-leading 8.3 GHz internal analysis bandwidth, offering unequaled dynamic range and sensitivity. Design engineers developing latest radar and wireless communications technologies as well as future satellite systems will benefit significantly from the extended bandwidth available in a one-box solution.
