path
●
Option baseband main module, one/two I/Q paths to RF (R&S SMW-B13/-B13T) or
option wideband baseband main module two I/Q paths to RF (R&S SMW-B13XT)

Option Multi-Carrier CW (R&S SMW-K61) per signal path
5.12.2 About the MCCW
The R&S SMW can calculate and generate a multi-carrier continuous wave signal build
form up to 8192 unmodulated carriers. The carrier offset and the power level of the car-
riers are user-definable. The provided settings allow individual configuration of each
carrier and the joint configuration of subset of carriers. Automatic start phase setting is
provided to minimize the crest factor.
The multi-carrier CW signals are not generated in realtime but rather computed in arbi-
trary waveform mode. Changes in the carrier settings are not considered until the
instrument is triggered to accept and apply them.
The common application fields of the multi-carrier CW signals are the receiver tests
with broadband test signals.
5.12.3 MCCW Settings
Access:
► Select "Baseband > Multi-Carrier CW".
The dialog enables direct carrier configuration, access to the carrier table and the
graphical representation of the configured carriers.
