1 Preface
The R&S SMW is a new high-performance signal generator developed to meet
demanding customer requirements. Offering excellent signal characteristics, wide sig-
nal bandwidth and straightforward and intuitive operation, the signal generator makes
signal generation fast and easy.
1.1 Key Features
Outstanding key features of the R&S SMW are:
●
Frequency range from 100 kHz to 3/6/12.75/20/31.8/40 GHz
●
Optional second RF path with 100 kHz up to 3/6/12.75/20 GHz
●
Up to 2 GHz I/Q modulation bandwidth (in RF) with internal baseband
●
Wideband baseband and vector signal generator in one box
●
Support of all important digital standards such as 5G air interface candidates, LTE
(up to Release 13) incl eMTC/NB-IoT, 3GPP FDD/HSPA/HSPA+, GSM/EDGE/
EDGE evolution, CDMA2000® /1xEV-DO, WLAN IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/j/p/ac/ad/ax
●
Generating signals for radar module and receiver tests
●
Versatile configuration: from single-path vector signal generator to multichannel
MIMO receiver tester
●
Optional integrated fading simulator with up to 160 MHz bandwidth
●
Ideal for MIMO, MSR, or LTE-Advanced applications thanks to up to eight signal
sources and up to 32 fading channels
●
Implementation of all key MIMO fading scenarios such as 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, 8x4, 4x8
and 2x4x4 using a single instrument
●
Internal digital adding of baseband signals, with frequency and level offset
●
Excellent signal quality for high accuracy in spectral and modulation measure-
ments
●
Intuitive operation via touchscreen with block diagram as key element
●
Graphical signal monitoring at practically every point in the signal flow
●
SCPI macro recorder and code generator for generating executable remote control
code from manual operating steps (for MATLAB
®
, CVI, etc.)
