Rohde Schwarz SMW200A Vector Signal Generator with 67 GHz Frequency and 2 GHz Modulation Bandwidth for MIMO Testing

Performance and functionality requirements vary depending on test setup and application. The R&S®SMW200A is unrivaled in mastering these varied requirements and sets new standards for signal generators. When developing and verifying any type of DUT, including components, modules and complete base stations - the R&S®SMW200A easily generates the appropriate test signals with top performance.

The R&S®SMW200A has a flexible modular design that can be equipped with exactly the options that applications require. Any configuration is possible, from a classic single-path vector signal generator to a multichannel MIMO receiver tester.

The R&S®SMW200A covers the frequency range up to 67 GHz as a single-path instrument and up to 44 GHz as a dual-path instrument. It can also be equipped with a maximum of two internal baseband modules and four fading simulator modules. This concept yields two full-featured vector signal generators in a single unit, enabling easy generation of complex signal scenarios.

• Frequency range up to 67 GHz (dual path: up to 44 GHz)
• Signal generation for all major digital communications standards
• 2 GHz modulation bandwidth
• Advanced GNSS and radar simulator
• Integrated fading with up to 800 MHz bandwidth and up to 8x8 MIMO

The R&S®SMW200A offers integrated channel emulation for up to 800 MHz of fading bandwidth. Fading profiles for all major standards are available as presets. With up to 64 fading channels, all key MIMO fading scenarios such as 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, 8x4, 4x8 and 8x8 can be configured in a single instrument. Aggregation of up to eight carriers is also supported and SGT100A signal generator modules can be connected to provide up to eight RF paths.
