New
R&S®CMsquares the powerful control center for 5G NR tests With R&S®CMsquares, users can access each measurement task in a separate measurement square. In R&S®CMsquares, the DUT is always in focus. This DUT centric approach makes it very easy to keep track of even complex test scenarios, test environments and measurement tasks. The next change is just one mouse click away.
R&S®CMsquares includes as many squares as you need: for measurements, graphical outputs and statistical views, network layout and configuration, RF connection, message analyzer, test sequencer, scripting you name it. The R&S®CMsquares layout can always be configured to your personal preferences.
5G NR extension box to R&S®CMWflexx systems for NSA and SA modes The R&S®CMX500 hardware and software is designed to address all signaling use cases that are encountered during the lifecycle of a 5G NR mobile communications device from the early R&D d esign stage to final integration, verification/performance testing, final product validation in a test house, quality assurance and repair.
Basic/Medium/Xpert the new signaling concept With its Basic, Medium and Xpert signaling concept, R&S®CMX500 breaks with the traditional separation between use cases for protocol testing, RF testing and data/ performance testing. Unlike in the past where the signaling environments of e.g. RF testing and protocol testing were separated from each other and could not be accessed by the other, Basic, Medium and Xpert sit on top of each other and can be upgraded cost efficiently.
The modular hardware architecture allows configurations ranging from basic use cases such as RF parametric measurements to measurements under fading conditions and performance measurements with maximum data rates. The user always has access to all signaling events and logs.
The GUI dynamically adjusts parameter access based on the signaling option many more parameters can be accessed with Xpert signaling than with Medium or Basic.
The Basic/Medium/Xpert signaling options build on top of each other Xpert needs Medium, Medium needs Basic.
The R&S®CMX500 has eliminated the traditional separation between RF tester, application tester and protocol tester. It is a signaling tester that allows seamless transition between all use cases required to bring a mobile cellular device from the basic layout/design stage to the production stage. In previous tester generations, dedicated instruments were needed to address all this.
The R&S®CMX500 hardware modules are designed for versatile tasks. Users enjoy great flexibility when it comes to addressing different measurement tasks with the same test station because there are no dedicated boards for dedicated measurement tasks. With just a basic configuration, u sers are all set for signaling, fading and data E2E applications.
Its 7 HU design provides plenty of space for future extension modules a true one-box tester.
The name of the option for an application indicates the signaling type required to operate it. For example, the "X" in the R&S®CMX-KC601X protocol conformance test package indicates that it requires the Xpert signaling functionality. Similar applications are available for "B" (Basic) and "M" (Medium) signaling.
Use cases The R&S®CMX500 is designed to cover all test requirements that may come up during the entire product lifecycle of a mobile communications device. The many components of a mobile communications device need to be independently tested on various interfaces step by step in development, during integration when components need to work together, and in the final device. The R&S®CMX500 gives users the flexibility and versatility they need for test solutions throughout the entire product lifecycle.

R&S®ATS1800C interior view
Inside the fully shielded chamber is the compact antenna test range (CATR) consisting of a feed antenna, a bidirectional parabolic reflector and a 3D positioner. The parabolic reflector is specially designed and manufactured by Rohde&Schwarz with optimized rolled edges that promise a well distributed power of the collimated beams after reflection. Moreover, the reflector has an extremely highprecision surface roughness, which minimizes the errors introduced by the reflection. This allows the reflector to be used in a very wide frequency range for accurate measurement results.
Due to the CATR technology, the generated quiet zone is 30 cm to accommodate both a black box measurement approach and large DUTs. Heavy DUTs can be placed on the highly accurate and stable 3D positioner so that parameters such as TRP, EIRP and EIS can be automated and measured. The stability and device weight specifications of the positioner also allow for CTIA frequency range 2 (FR2) antenna performance tests where phantom heads and hands are to be used.

Audio analysis with automatic measurement of modulation frequency, THD and SINAD
Display of audio signals and demod ulated signals in frequency and time domain
Audio input for calibration of modulation generators
Combines the functions of multiple instruments The R&S®FSMR combines the functionality of several instruments in one and is capable of calibrating all vital parameters of signal generators and fixed or adjustable attenuators. The R&S®FSMR offers full spectrum analyzer functionality, e.g. for measuring harmonics or phase noise. The base unit does not provide for image frequency rejection in the range above 3.6 GHz since the YIG filters normally used for this would impair level linearity. The optional YIG preselection filter makes the R&S®FSMR a full-featured spectrum analyzer, also in the microwave range. The tracking YIG filter can be switched off for accurate level calibration.
The R&S®FSMR not only displays the demodulated signal or the audio signal in the time domain, the signal is also displayed selectively as an RF spectrum, generatedby means of an FFT, with harmonics and any spurious modulation, such as hum.

R&S®FS-SNS SMART NOISE SOURCES
New
Noise figure and gain measurement
To perform noise figure and gain measurements with a
spectrum analyzer, an excess noise ratio (ENR) source
is needed that adds a well-defined (and ideally "white")
noise to the input of the DUT. The Y factor is the ratio of
3
the noise power at the output of the DUT with and with-
out this added noise. It forms the basis for calculating the
amount of noise contributed by the DUT and its resulting
noise figure and gain.
For easy and accurate noise figure measurements The R&S®FS-SNS smart noise sources enable simple and accurate noise figure and gain measurements by automatically loading all necessary setup parameters and taking the environmental temperature into account. Measurement uncertainty is calculated automatically and can even be displayed on the result screen.
Key facts Frequency range up to 26 GHz, 40 GHz or 55 GHz Supported by the R&S®FSW, R&S®FSV3000,
R&S®FSVA3000 signal and spectrum analyzers and the R&S®FSWP phase noise analyzer and VCO tester Automatic loading of ENR table ENR uncertainty and reflection coefficients table for automatic uncertainty calculation Automatic temperature readout for improved accuracy
Although the characteristics of the output signal of a noise source in the specified frequency range comes close to white noise, it still has a slight frequency response and temperature dependency. To eliminate this deviation from ideal behavior, noise sources come with written tables that indicate the ENR behavior of the noise source with respect to frequency and temperature. These correction values must be manually transferred to the noise figure measurement software.
The R&S®FS-SNS smart noise sources eliminate this time consuming and error prone activity by providing the ENR tables and environmental temperature to the spectrum analyzer in electronic format.
The R&S®FS-SNS smart noise sources are connected to the analyzer via a 7-pin cable for power supply and control interface. An adapter cable is supplied for instruments not equipped with the necessary connector. When connected to a spectrum analyzer (Fig. 2) equipped with the application firmware R&S®FSx-K30 noise figure measurements (Fig. 1), the instrument handles all needed parameters automatically.
Fig. 1: Noise figure and gain measurement with R&S®FSx-K30 application firmware. In addition to the result table and the noise figure traces, the calculated gain and Y factor uncertainty can also be displayed.
Fig. 2: When the R&S®FS-SNS smart noise source is connected, ENR, uncertainty and reflection coefficient tables are automatically loaded and the temperature is set.

The mixers additionally feature the following Low conversion loss High 1 dB compression point High LO frequency range No biasing required Conversion loss data provided in file format
Due to their double-diode design, the mixers are operated 3
without any additional biasing. No frequency-dependent adjustment of bias current is needed an invaluable feature for automated measurements.
Spectrum analysis in the waveguide bands above 40 GHz Frequencies in the high GHz range still require the use of external harmonic mixers. Such mixers can be connected to numerous Rohde&Schwarz analyzers that are equipped with the R&S®FSx-B21 LO/IF ports option for external mixers. Rohde&Schwarz mixers cover the frequency range up to 500 GHz. If other mixers are used, up to 1.1THz is possible.

The frequency-dependent conversion loss is calibrated over the entire frequency range. The large number of frequency points included in the resulting conversion loss table provides high level accuracy during measurements. The conversion loss table comes in file format with each mixer and can be loaded directly into the analyzer, which makes mixer configuration very easy.
The following instrument models support the harmonic mixers (R&S®FSx-B21 option required): R&S®FSV30/40 R&S®FSVA30/40 R&S®FSVR30/40 R&S®FSW26/43/50/67/85 R&S®FSWP26/50
High sensitivity The low conversion loss yields high sensitivity, which is the basis for measuring signals even at very low levels.
High large-signal immunity With a high 1 dB compression point and low conversion loss, the mixers feature a very wide dynamic range. Therefore, measurements of low-level signals can easily be performed even in the presence of high-level signals.
Straightforward spectrum display The high LO frequency range and the low order of harmonics used significantly reduce the number of unwanted mixing products. In addition, the analyzer firmware provides algorithms to identify and suppress remaining unwanted mixing products.
Wideband signal analysis The models R&S®FS-Z75, R&S®FS-Z90 and R&S®FS-Z110 have a higher IF OUT frequency range (IF OUT) of 5 MHz to 6 GHz that enables an analysis bandwidth of more than 5 GHz.

xxx-K114 OFDM Signal Generation (internal) xxx-K414 OFDM Signal Generation (R&S®WinIQSIM2TM)
OFDM signal generation The vector signal generators from Rohde&Schwarz are ideal tools for early 5G physical layer testing. Using the xxx-K114 option, the vector signal generators flexibly generate customized 5G air interface candidate signals.
The user can choose from various waveform types such as GFDM, FBMC, UFMC or f-OFDM and parameterize the signals as desired. Pulse shaping filters, subcarrier spacing and the number of carriers as well as the modulation and data content can be set. Preamble generation, a configurable cyclic prefix length and support for sparse code multiple access (SCMA) allow the testing of components or receivers with realistic pre-5G physical layer signals. Direct internal signal generation without the need for any external PC software helps to speed up the signal creation process.
Optionally, the vector signal generators from Rohde&Schwarz can also be equipped with a second signal generation path. This allows simultaneous generation of a 5G candidate signal and a legacy LTE signal from a single signal generator without complicated synchronization of multiple separate signal sources.
Interdependencies between LTE and 5G are hence quickly simulated. And interference that occurs in the device under test (DUT) due to the simultaneous presence of 5G and LTE are easily discovered.

R&S®ZNA VECTOR NETWORK ANALYZER
New
Masters the most challenging measurement tasks Offering outstanding RF characteristics and a unique hardware architecture, the R&S®ZNA high-end vector network analyzer makes demanding measurements easier than ever. Another exceptional feature is the analyzer's DUTcentric operating concept, which guides users quickly and conveniently to the desired measurement setup. Two independent touchscreens provide utmost flexibility for smooth, efficient operation.
The R&S®ZNA features exceptional stability, low trace noise and excellent raw data, making it a perfect choice for development and production applications that require high accuracy, e.g. for developing and producing components and modules for A&D and satellite applications.
The R&S®ZNA offers four internal, phase-coherent sources, allowing independent control of the signal's frequency at each port as well as phase measurements on mixers. It provides two internal LO sources, a true multichannel receiver architecture, pulse generators and modulators, an internal combiner, and comprehensive trigger and synchronization capabilities. These hardware features make the R&S®ZNA a universal, compact test system for active and passive device characterization. Even intermodulation measurements on mixers and receivers can be performed without external sources, minimizing test time and simplifying test configuration.
Thanks to the phase-coherent digital sources and receivers, no reference mixers are needed for mixer phase measurements, and test setups are configured just as easily as for non-frequency-converting S-parameter measurements.
The R&S®ZNA characterizes low-noise amplifiers (LNA), receivers, frequency-converting DUTs and T/R modules precisely and efficiently; the DUT needs to be connected only once.

R&S®TSME30DC DOWNCONVERTER
24 GHz to 30 GHz: upgrade R&S®TSMx6 for 5G NR millimeterwave measurements The R&S®TSME30DC is designed to easily upgrade the R&S®TSMx6 scanners to measure 5G NR signals in the millimeterwave frequency range. It perfectly extends the latest generation mobile network scanner family and provides all features for easy drive and walk testing. It is fully controlled by the R&S®TSMx6 and the corresponding software layers, which allows seamless, unattended operation.
With its broadband downconversion frequency range, the downconverter covers a huge part of the new mmWave frequency bands allocated for 5G NR networks. These new frequency bands show completely different behavior in terms of propagation and phase noise, which puts demanding requirements on measurement tools' hardware. Using millimeterwave frequencies necessitates beamforming for sufficient propagation.
To provide best s ensitivity, image frequency rejection and lowest phase noise, the R&S®TSME30DC adjusts internal parameters such as the intermediate frequency (IF) and the local oscillator (LO) to the measurement task. This takes place in the background and is unnoticeable by the user. It ensures that every single parameter is optimized for best system performance. The R&S®TSME30DC is also future-proof. It supports up to five scanners for future 5G NR measurements tasks and ultra high performance measurement modes.

service companies with a comprehensive solution for base station installation and maintenance. It ideally complements the fast VSWR, cable loss, DTF and power measurements of the R&S®CableRider ZPH and R&S®ZVH cable and antenna analyzers and R&S®FSH handheld spectrum analyzer.
Performance ready to go Each lightweight, compact unit is protected by a reinforced backpack case. Even in battery mode, the PiMPro Tower can deliver two 40 W output signals. Its excellent measurement sensitivity of 135 dBm and its ability to reduce two-tone transmit signals to 24 dBm (100 mW) make the PIM analyzer the ideal instrument for measurements on base stations and DAS.
The challenge of keeping base stations PIM-free In response to the increasing demand for higher data rates, network operators have to push their networks' spectral efficiency to the theoretical limit. Passive intermodulation (PIM) is one source of interference that affects spectral efficiency: it may cause a reduction in the data rate, dropped calls or even non-accessibility of the network.
Key facts One-port measurement of PIM, RL, PiMPoint (DTP), DTF Real-world 40 W × 2 PIM testing capability Dual-band models for 1800/2100 and 1900/2100 bands Easy to operate with look and feel of a smart phone Lightest unit in the market (8.5 kg PIM2600 model)

PIM measurements Instantaneous PIM and RL, dynamic PIM vs time and frequency sweep measurements enable users to ensure a PIM-free site and do not require any previous instrument calibration. Fail limits, output power, frequency and IM settings are easily configured. The PiMPro Tower's unique return loss diagnostic feature at high transmit (TX) power quickly points out open cables.
One-port measurements Users are able to perform PIM, return loss, PiMPont (distance-to-PIM) and distance-to-fault measurements on a single port and without requiring additional hardware.
DTF and PiMPoint (DTP) measurements Distance-to-fault and PiMPoint (distance-to-PIM) are simultaneously measured and displayed on the same graph. The DTF and PiMPoints results guide users to the fault location.
Report generator Report data for all measurements can be stored in either HTML or PDF file format. Users can combine a limitless series of measurements with different sectors, feeders and color codes in one single PDF file. Reports can be saved in the internal memory of the PiMPro Tower PIM or to an external USB memory from the front panel of the unit.

Advanced interference hunting and emitter location R&S®MobileLocator makes it possible for the first time to detect and automatically locate a transmitter from a moving DF vehicle. Within minutes, the compact DF system based on the R&S®DDF007 portable direction finder can turn a commercial vehicle into a DF platform for the frequency range from 20 MHz to 6 GHz. In combination with other Rohde&Schwarz direction finders, R&S®MobileLocator can also be used in dedicated DF vehicles and helicopters.
Faulty, poorly shielded or incorrectly configured electronic devices can unintentionally emit electromagnetic waves and interfere with or even disrupt existing radio services. Sources of such interference are frequently located in urban areas. This makes precise direction finding extremely difficult due to multipath propagation that results from radio waves being reflected and diffracted by surrounding buildings and other objects. Unless the operator has many years of experience in finding radio interference sources, having capabilities that quickly and automatically lead to the target is highly desirable.
Broad scope of application R&S®MobileLocator was developed for automatic location of fixed frequency signals in urban areas. The signal does not have to be continuously active as long as a sufficient number of signal bearings are taken. R&S®MobileLocator is not designed to locate push-to-talk (PTT) networks or frequency agile signals.

EMC and field strength test solutions
INTRODUCTION
EMC = EMI + EMS Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is the capability of an electrical device or system to operate in its electromagnetic environment without disturbing it or being disturbed by it. EMC is an important criterion of product quality. To ensure EMC of a product in the most economical way, appropriate measures should be taken early in the design phase.
In line with the definition, EMC is subdivided into electromagnetic interference (EMI) and electromagnetic susceptibility (EMS). Legislation prescribes compliance with maximum values for EMI and minimum values for EMS. The applicable limits, the measurement methods and instruments to be employed are specified in the relevant standards.
EMS measurements For measuring electromagnetic susceptibility, the different disturbance sources occurring in practice are replaced by appropriate generators, the interfering signals of which are applied to the EUT via suitable coupling/decoupling networks and antennas.
For monitoring the proper functioning of the EUT, suitable monitoring equipment can be provided, which so far has not been defined in the relevant EMC standards. In many cases, highly shielded video cameras with monitors or automatic visual inspection software are used for this purpose.
EMC measurement software Reproducible EMC measurements are only possible if a number of rules and standards for the measuring instruments and the measurement methods used are complied with.
Conformity mark To show their conformity to the EMC requirements prescribed by law, all electrical devices have to be marked accordingly, e.g. by the CE conformity mark required in the entire European Economic Area.
EMI measurements For measuring electromagnetic disturbance, the disturbance sink is replaced by the measuring instrument. As a result, all test receivers for commercial EMI measurements should have human-like response built in: they must have a quasi-peak-weighting detector to show the human perception of disturbance as a measured value. Disturbance measurements higher than 1 GHz use peak, CISPRaverage and RMS-average weighting.
In the military sector, the disturbance sink is assumed to be a technical device that responds to the maximum disturbance level. Therefore, the peak level of disturbance is measured.
For computer-controlled EMC measurements, two different software tools are available. The R&S®ELEKTRA and R&S®EMC32 system control software include various modules for electromagnetic interference (EMI) and electromagnetic susceptibility (EMS) measurements. Due to its flexible structure the software can be optimally adapted to the requirements of almost any commercial, automotive or military EMC application.
These tools relieve the user of routine settings and offer convenience from automatic consideration of frequencydependent transducer factors of the coupling/decoupling networks, automatic selection of the applicable limit lines, display of the results in graphical or tabular form to the generation of test reports. Similar convenience is provided by the automatic EMI test routines implemented in the R&S®ESW, R&S®ESR, R&S®ESRP and R&S®ESL test receivers. They allow fully automatic time-saving measurements without an external controller, so that very compact test setups can be implemented.
Disturbance is emitted by the equipment under test in various ways of coupling. Therefore, the EMC standards contain procedures for coupling the test receiver to the equipment under test (EUT).
EMC test systems Planning and implementation of practice-oriented EMC test systems requires a great deal of specialized know ledge. Rohde&Schwarz has been building EMC test systems for decades and has gained immense experience.
These systems are always tailored to the specific needs of the user to provide the optimum solution to the tasks at hand. We offer everything from small systems to complete test houses including shielded anechoic chamber and the required infrastructure, covering all major standards in the commercial, automotive, wireless and military range.

R&S®ESW EMI TEST RECEIVER
Excellent RF characteristics and high measurement speed The R&S®ESW is an EMI test receiver with outstanding RF characteristics, including high dynamic range und measurement accuracy. It meets the most stringent requirements for certification measurements in line with CISPR, EN, MILSTD-461, DO160 and FCC. With its FFT-based time domain scan, the R&S®ESW captures and weights disturbance spectra in virtually no time. The instrument's realtime spectrum analysis capability with spectrogram function permits a detailed analysis of disturbance signals and their history. MultiView mode delivers a straightforward display of results, even for multiple operating modes.
The R&S®ESW EMI test receiver is ideal for demanding EMI certification measurements as required in the automotive and A&D sectors. It features the widest dynamic range with a high 1 dB compression point and high sensitivity due to its low inherent noise. The preselection in the R&S®ESW offers additional highpass filters at 150 kHz and 2 MHz as well as notch filters specifically for the licensefree ISM bands at 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz. It is thus ensured that high carrier signals in these bands which are used by Bluetooth® and WLAN, for example do not affect the instrument's dynamic range, and that even small disturbance signals outside these bands are detected.
The R&S®ESW comes with an FFT-based time domain scan as standard. Measurements that previously took minutes or hours are completed in just seconds. Even measurements that use two CISPR detectors (quasipeak, CISPR-average, RMS-average) are possible, cutting overall measurement time in half. The R&S®ESW combines the functions of an EMI test receiver with those of a full-featured spectrum analyzer in a single instrument. Realtime spectrum analysis (R&S®ESW-K55 option) with a bandwidth of 80 MHz allows users to detect hidden or superimposed disturbances and analyze their causes using persistence mode and a frequency mask trigger. The spectrogram function provides seamless spectrum display in the time domain, making even rapidly changing disturbance signals visible. This saves considerable time and cost during product development and certification.
With the MultiView function, users can display different measurements and traces including in different operating modes simultaneously and in a straightforward manner. Clearly structured, flat menus and the touchscreen simplify operation.

Anechoic chamber Radiated emissions are measured mostly in an anechoic chamber as an alternative to an open area test site (OATS). This requires a remote controlled turntable and an automatic antenna mast with a control unit. These optional components can be supplied with the system and controlled by the system software. For development and quality assurance purposes, smaller test cells that easily fit into the lab are available. The upper frequency limit of the test system is 40 GHz (200 GHz using mixers) and depends on the type of DUT and the applied standard.
Test receiver The test receiver (R&S®ESW, R&S®ESR or R&S®ESRP) forms the core of the system. It evaluates and displays emissions in line with the relevant standards. If precompliance measurements are sufficient for EMC testing, a spectrum analyzer can be used instead of the test receiver.
Test antennas and LISN Suitable test antennas such as the R&S®HL562E and R&S®HF907 as well as artificial mains networks (LISN) are used for measuring emissions.
Switching unit The R&S®OSP switching unit configured with appropriate plug-in modules for switching antennas and transducers is integrated into the system.
Test software The R&S®TS9975 EMI test system comes with the R&S®EMC32 test software. The software makes it possible to carry out automatic and manual EMI measurements in line with all relevant standards. The R&S®EMC32 test software is a convenient, cost-effective and reliable tool, enabling fast and easy system operation and high throughput. The extended test and configuration capabilities ensure high reproducibility of results.

System design Transducers (conducted): The system can include a coupling/decoupling network (CDN), EM clamp and a bulk current injection (BCI) clamp as transducers.
Antenna: The EMS antenna is optimally designed for efficient field generation in line with EN61000-4-3. Due to its compact design, it is also suitable for small anechoic chambers.
Amplifiers: The amplifier power is optimally adapted to the transducers or the antenna as well as to the required test level, yielding an excellent price/performance ratio. The R&S®BBA and R&S®BBL series amplifiers are designed in such a way that with the required upward modulation of 80%, the amplifier's 1 dB compression point is not exceeded and spurious emissions do not exceed a value of 15 dBc. In line with EN61000-4-3, the amplifier saturation check after completion of the field uniformity calibration is mandatory. Monitoring of the amplifier's forward and reflected power and of the injected current in the case of BCI, is integrated in the system.
Accessories The system comes with all accessories (such as a field probe, including tripod and load resistor) necessary for operation and calibration. Also all test routines for multimedia tests in line with the new EN55035 are available.

windows. At a weight of up to 28 kg, the R&S®FSWT is easy to transport. This considerably facilitates on-site measurements, e.g. on ships.
TEMPEST measuring receiver with digital signal evaluation Thanks to its digitally implemented measurement bandwidth of up to 500 MHz and its very high sensitivity, the R&S®FSWT fulfills the requirements for a TEMPEST measuring receiver. The intuitive, straightforward operating concept permits users to accomplish measurement tasks quickly and easily..
The R&S®FSWT is the right T&M instrument for applications that require checking the information content of even the smallest signals. With two equivalent, switchable RF inputs, up to 500 MHz measurement and analysis bandwidth and two independently settable analog outputs for video voltage and demodulators, it fits perfectly into typical test setups and easily replaces older instruments. The R&S®FSWT can optionally be equipped with preselection and preamplifier in the base unit (5 HU). Twenty-one switchable filters with very low insertion loss suppress even strong out-of-band signals. With preamplifier, the noise figure at 100 MHz is only 1.5 dB. The test receiver measures and demodulates even weak signals reliably.
Thanks to its selection of measurement bandwidth and detectors, the R&S®FSWT is also used for EMI measurements in line with commercial and military standards.
All measurement bandwidths from 1 Hz to 500 MHz are digitally implemented with extremely high accuracy. Video voltage, IF, AM, FM and other signals are exactly reconstructed by two digital/analog converters and fed to two analog outputs. The outputs are configured independently of the other instrument settings; the user observes the signals in parallel on an oscilloscope. Alternatively, the test receiver can save the I/Q data for offline analysis, in which case it transmits the data via the remote control interface to a PC for further processing.
Its large 12.1" touchscreen, clear diagrams and flat menus make the R&S®FSWT easy to operate; different measurements can be displayed simultaneously in separate

Antenna gain and cable loss, for example, are automatically included in the measurement result The user saves limit lines in a separate library on the instrument. The R&S®FSWT automatically compares the frequency scan to the assigned limit line and generates a list of the frequencies of interest The R&S®EMC32 measurement software can be used to remotely control the R&S®FSWT. The software measures spectra, offers extensive analysis functions and generates informative test reports PC monitors and video screens emit electromagnetic radiation, which may reveal the displayed content. The R&S®FSWT-K57 video raster option reconstructs this content on the screen of the R&S®FSWT. The software application runs on the R&S®FSWT and is activated by keycode. There is no need for additional external devices By adding the optional external generator control, the R&S®FSWT can be combined with a signal generator to form a simple scalar network analyzer, e.g. for checking cables and filters

R&S®AdVISE VISUAL INSPECTION SOFTWARE
R&S®AdVISE uses object based algorithms to analyze the incoming video signal of an HDTV camera attached to a PC. With the aid of parameters defined by the user, the software detects any deviations from the target status of the EUT and documents these deviations in a video protocol and status report. R&S®AdVISE can be connected to system software such as R&S®EMC32 via a remote control interface. The system software controls the test sequence and creates its own report containing the results.
A new way to eliminate human inattention R&S®AdVISE visual inspection software automates the process of visually monitoring an equipment under test (EUT) during a test sequence. This eliminates human inattention, ensures reproducible results and simplifies the test documentation. A typical application is EMS testing with R&S®EMC32 test software.
Visually monitoring an EUT during a complex test sequence is time-consuming and requires utmost concentration. Errors can be overlooked in a momentary lapse of attention. Furthermore, many events cannot be reliably monitored with the naked eye, such as slight changes in color or brightness or deviation from a predefined flashing frequency.
Analysis focuses on the regions of interest (ROI), with which the user marks which areas of the picture are to be analyzed and which methods are to be used. The R&S®AdVISE system analyzes data at rates of up to 30 frames per second and can see transitory events that a human may miss.
The intuitive and clearly structured user interface makes it possible to configure measurements in only a few minutes. The operator can intervene at any point during the test sequence to deactivate or adjust individual regions.

The end user has a choice between the two types of test sites. In connection with chamber validation, correlation factors from the 3 m FAR performance to a 10 m OATS
can be worked out and provided. Compact in size with a total height between 2.6 m (8.4 ft) and 3.6 m (11.8 ft), the precompliant test site (CDC) is ideal for office and laboratory areas.
The completely modular configuration of the CDC and the durable pan shielding system allows time-and costefficient upgrading to a compliant 3 m test site at a later stage. All precompliant test sites provide shielding in line with EN50147-1. Conducted EMC measurements in accordance with all relevant standards can be performed in all chambers, provided that the geometry of the test site allows it.

FULLY COMPLIANT ANECHOIC TEST CHAMBERS
Fully compliant test sites and their components are designed to have the lowest possible contribution to the total measurement uncertainty of the test facility, (i.e. to allow reproducible, accurate and fast measurements). Our family of fully compliant EMC test sites includes all semianechoic chambers (SAC) for 3 m, 5 m and 10 m test distance and fully anechoic rooms (FAR) for 3 m and 5 m test distance.
The chamber validation of these solutions is described in CISPR16-1-4. The final dimensions of the 10 m semi-anechoic chambers depend a lot on the dimensions of the EUT, whereas the dimensions of the fully-anechoic 3 m and 5 m chambers easily can be standardized. All fully compliant test sites provide shielding compliant to EN50147-1 and IEEE299. Conducted EMC measurements, in accordance with all relevant standards can be performed in all chambers, provided that the geometry of the test site allows it.

EMC TEST SITES FOR THE AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY
The family of EMC test sites for the automotive industry and their suppliers of electric and electronic subassemblies (ESA) include semi-anechoic chambers (SAC) for 1 m, 3 m, 5 m and 10 m test distance. For 20 years, the automotive industry has considered the semi-anechoic chamber as "state-of-the-art" for vehicle testing and the same has held true for component testing for the last decade. The CISPR25 and automotive chamber differ in terms of size, cost and the variety of measurements to be performed.
CISPR25 or ESA test chambers are used for emission and immunity testing on electronic subassemblies. A higher integration along with much higher ESA clock frequencies in vehicles makes the "inner EMC" of vehicles the challenge of today. The vehicle is driven by the chassis dynamometer to simulate various traffic situations and cover all functional stresses. All CISPR25 and automotive test sites provide a shielding compliant to EN50147-1 and IEEE299. Conducted EMC measurements in accordance with all relevant standards can be performed in all chambers, provided that the geometry of the test site and its configuration allows it.

Hardware interfaces for remote control and triggering The R&S®NRX provides three different remote interfaces for integration in automated test setups as standard: Ethernet, USB and optionally GPIB (R&S®NRX-B8). A trigger input on the rear panel permits external triggering for synchronized power measurements.
Versatile, user-friendly base unit The R&S®NRX simultaneously supports up to four power sensors of the R&S®NRP and R&S®NRQ family. Function keys on the front panel provide quick access to the most important functions. Users can open the frequency setting menu or zero the connected sensors at the push of a button. Presets for all major mobile radio standards, such as 3GPP LTE, 3GPP WCDMA, GSM/EDGE, WLAN and Bluetooth®, ensure correct measurement.
Expandable to up to four measurement channels The R&S®NRX standard configuration includes one measurement channel. The base unit can be optionally expanded to two (R&S®NRX-K2 or four (R&S®NRX-K2 and R&S®NRX-K4) measurement channels.

R&S®NRP-Zxx POWER SENSORS
The right sensor for all applications The R&S®NRP-Zxx power sensors function as independent measuring instruments and are completely characterized over frequency, level and temperature. The sensors can be operated either on an R&S®NRX base unit or directly on a laptop/PC. They are also supported by numerous signal generators, signal analyzers, spectrum analyzers and network analyzers from Rohde&Schwarz.
Feeding accurate power level to a device under test The R&S®NRP-Z28/-Z98 level control sensors provide an integrated power splitter. One part is measured by the integrated power sensor and displayed on a Rohde&Schwarz signal generator, on the R&S®NRX base unit or on a laptop/ PC. The other part, which is identical to the measured part, is output at the sensor's RF output and can be directly fed to the DUT.
Solution for accurate level calibration The R&S®NRP-Z27/-Z37 power sensor modules turn the R&S®FSMR measuring receivers into precision power meters with a wide dynamic range from 115 dBm to +30 dBm. The R&S®NRP-Z27 and -Z37 power sensor modules were developed especially for level calibration using the R&S®FSMR measuring receiver. These sensors act as highly accurate references for determining the absolute power level.

Up to 44 GHz The R&S®NRP-Z8x wideband power sensors are ideal for power measurements on microwave link modules. Especially the R&S®NRP-Z86 model .44 (upper frequency limit of 44 GHz) can be used for the development, production, installation and maintenance of the latest generation of microwave link modules. The user benefits from the sensor's high measurement speed and large dynamic range.
Cost-effective solution for production applications The R&S®NRP-Z211/-Z221 two-path diode power sensors combine all key characteristics relevant for their use in production. They are cost-effective, fast, precise and USB- capable. The sensors support the same measurement functions as the R&S®NRPxxS three-path diode power sensors and offer the best price/performance ratio in their class.

R&S®TS6 TRM TEST LIBRARY New
The R&S®TS6 TRM test library software automates all tests typical for a TRM characterization. It utilizes an R&S®ZVA vector network analyzer and additional equipment such as R&S®ZVAX-TRM or R&S®OSP-TRM signal conditioning units, different power supplies, switch matrices and an R&S®FSW signal and spectrum analyzer.
TRM test solution using a single ¸ZVA vector network analyzer (with or without ¸ZVAX-TRM extension unit) controlled by the ¸TS6 TRM test library software
Test automation software for TRM characterization in R&D and production The RF characterization of a transmit-receive module (TRM), the core component of state-of-the-art AESA radars, requires extensive testing with several thousand results in many different test scenarios. The ¸TS6 TRM test library software automates this measurement including system calibration, test execution, result evaluation and documentation. TRM-specific control implementation is possible locally via an open C# plug-in.
State-of-the-art AESA radars contain several thousand TRMs each, and each TRM must be tested separately during the development and production stage. To handle the large number of different measurements and result values, these tests require a high degree of automation.
The test software comprises the R&S®TSrun test sequencer and TRM-specific test cases for all common types of TRM tests. Configuration by test parameters for each test case ensures the flexibility to adopt DUT-specific requirements. DUT control and triggering are always device-specific and locally programmable via an open C# software plug-in.
The R&S®TS6 TRM test library combines the advantages of standard software as a proven solution based on decades of experience in TRM testing and regular updates with the flexibility of an open device control and a wide range of parametrization of test parameters.

The R&S®SFE100 is available with or without front panel controls.
The R&S®SFE100 is a compact and reliable instrument that can be equipped with a power amplifier that is unique in this class and makes the R&S®SFE100 particularly valuable in production test systems. Plus, it can be used as a simple and economical signal generator and as a second RF channel for special applications available with the R&S®SFU.
The R&S®SFE100 can be equipped with the appropriate digital or analog baseband signal sources. This makes it possible to replay test signals from Rohde&Schwarz libraries as well as proprietary test signals. The R&S®SFE100 thus combines two functions in one box, which significantly simplies even complex production test systems. An optional arbitrary waveform generator allows the user to generate any type of modulation signal and to replay proprietary waveform files regardless of the available realtime coders.
Alternatively, the R&S®SFE100 can be remotely controlled from a PC. In this case, the test transmitter is operated via the same convenient graphical user interface as is used for the R&S®SFE and the R&S®SFU. For applications that do not require local control, an R&S®SFE100 model without display and keys is available.

R&S®SFD DOCSIS SIGNAL GENERATOR
Thanks to its digital signal generation capabilities, the R&S®SFD is ideal for testing tuners, cable modems and upstream CMTS receivers in R&D and production and also for simulating DOCSIS3.1 signals in real cable segments. For realistic signal generation, the R&S®SFD can add interference such as noise, phase noise, hum, tilt and even a defined bit error rate.
Signal generator for DOCSIS3.1 downstream and upstream The R&S®SFD produces signals for DOCSIS3.1, DOCSIS3.0, digital cable TV in line with J.83/A/B/C and analog cable TV. Its downstream frequency range is 47 MHz to 1794 MHz for DOCSIS3.1 and 47 MHz to 1218 MHz for DOCSIS3.0 and TV. Within this range, the R&S®SFD generates a DOCSIS3.1 channel with up to 192 MHz bandwidth.
The level, frequency, forward error correction (FEC) and constellation of this channel can be set. The R&S®SFD can alternatively produce a digital, QAM-modulated or analog TV signal. The DOCSIS3.1 channel or digital TV channel is modulated in realtime. The data to be transmitted can be fed in via IP or internally generated by the R&S®SFD.
The generator is accommodated in ½19" housing that takes up a mere two height units. The complex signal generation process can be conveniently configured from a PC or via a web interface. Remote control through SCPI commands enables the generator to be used in automatic test systems. The R&S®SFD can be adapted to different application requirements thanks to its software option concept.
Key facts Frequency range in downstream: 47 MHz to 1218 MHz

R&S®CLGD DOCSIS CABLE LOAD GENERATOR
a large number of digital and analog TV signals that can be placed anywhere below or between the DOCSIS 3.1 signals.
Multichannel signal generator for DOCSIS 4.0 The R&S®CLGD is a multichannel signal generator for simulating a cable TV network with full channel loading. It generates broadband data signals for DOCSIS 4.0 (FDX), DOCSIS 3.1 as well as digital and analog TV channels. In the downstream or upstream, signals can be freely combined, allowing users to simulate any conceivable channel loading scenario in the lab.
The R&S®CLGD is the first generator that simultaneously produces signals for DOCSIS 4.0, DOCSIS 3.1, DOCSIS 3.0, digital cable TV in line with J.83/A/B/C and analog cable TV. Its downstream frequency range is 47 MHz to 1002 MHz for TV and 47 MHz to 1794 MHz for DOCSIS 3.1. Within this range, the R&S®CLGD generates multiple DOCSIS 3.1 channels with up to 192 MHz bandwidth each.
The R&S®CLGD FDX mode extends R&S®CLGD functionality with DOCSIS 4.0 test feature set. It includes the flexible configurable generation of FDX downstream and upstream channels. In addition the CLGD generates the FDX sounding (OUDP). The level, frequency, forward error correction (FEC) and constellation of these channels can be set independently. At the same time, the R&S®CLGD produces
DS operating range: 54 MHz to 258 MHz
The DOCSIS 3.1 channels and digital TV channels are implemented in realtime. The data to be transmitted can be fed in via IP or internally generated by the R&S®CLGD. The upstream frequency range is from 5 MHz to 204 MHz. Within this range, DOCSIS 3.1 orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) signals can be freely combined with DOCSIS 3.0 TDMA or CDMA signals.
The flexible multichannel signal generation capabilities of the R&S®CLGD enable it to simulate network loading in a reproducible manner, making it ideal for testing tuners, cable modems and upstream CMTS receivers. The influence of QAM and TDMA/CDMA signals in adjacent channels on DOCSIS 3.1 signal reception is a research topic of great interest. The R&S®CLGD makes such simulations realistic by adding different types of interference, such as noise, reflections and narrowband interference.

R&S®SLG SATELLITE LOAD GENERATOR
Multichannel digital satellite TV modulator The R&S®SLG satellite load generator is a multichannel signal generator for digital satellite TV. It is the world's first integrated instrument to simulate TV satellite bands with full channel load. The R&S®SLG generates satellite TV signals using different standards and parameters and combines them in any desired manner. Users can simulate any conceivable uplink and downlink configurations in the lab. The R&S®SLG covers all satellite IF frequency bands used worldwide. Up to 16 transponders can transmit MPEG transport streams; the other transponders carry PRBS data. The transport streams are fed into the instrument via IP or ASI inputs. The R&S®SLG uses its integrated transport stream generator to play short transport stream files. Each channel can contain an ARB waveform or a CW carrier instead of a TV signal.
The R&S®SLG is primarily suited for performing RF tests on satellite TV components. Its interfaces, which are commonly used in consumer electronics and professional
satellite electronics, make the generator ideal for testing tuners and set-top boxes as well as upconverters, amplifiers and satellite payloads. Because it can simultaneously generate multiple channels with high symbol rates, the R&S®SLG is also well suited for performing stress tests on systems that process large data quantities, such as transcoders, conditional access middleware and military surveillance data processing systems. The R&S®SLG can be fully remote controlled, making it ideal for integration into automatic test systems. All this functionality has been packed into a compact 19" 1 HU housing. Previously a rack full of modulators was needed to generate as many satellite TV signals as the R&S®SLG does.

System components
Easy system integration All R&S®OSP units can be controlled via Ethernet. This makes it possible to connect R&S®OSP units to a PC or laptop in the lab, integrate them into a test system or remotely operate them from a workstation over a corporate network or the internet.
The units can be controlled with SCPI commands either via PTY or from application programs such as LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, Keysight VEE, C++, C#, Visual Basic and Visual Basic .NET.
Virtually unlimited expandability All R&S®OSP models can be combined via Ethernet into a local network or a corporate or global network in a master/
slave configuration. This makes it possible to substantially enhance the R&S®OSP units' functionality, including trigger function and path control, plus it provides an economical way to expand existing R&S®OSP systems to meet future requirements.
As an alternative to networking multiple R&S®OSP units, the compact R&S®OSPB200S2 satellite box can be used for remote operation. The satellite box shifts RF switch and control tasks close to the DUT or the antennas. This reduces the number of long RF cables required, improving RF performance of the setup and saving cost. The satellite box is controlled via a serial electrical bus cable (wired link) or a fiber-optic link (FOL), as required in a given application.

Trainers/training staff The trainers continuously keep their technical knowledge up to date. They not only possess technical expertise, they are also able to convey it in an understandable and lasting manner.
Location Classes may be held at the state-of-the-art training center at company headquarters in Munich. Optionally, seminars can take place on the customer's premises or at any other suitable location.
Timetable Standard training classes are scheduled twice a year. For dates, see the Rohde&Schwarz homepage. The schedule for customized seminars is drawn up together with the individual customer.
Languages The seminars are conducted either in German or English. If needed, special training classes can be held in other languages.
Registration and organization All detailed information regarding the seminars including class descriptions, registration, cost, procedure and content is provided on the Rohde&Schwarz homepage.
