The NGE100B power supply series from Rohde & Schwarz is easy and safe to operate. The robust instruments have galvanically isolated channels and safety binding posts. The colour-coding of the channels provides a quick overview. The power supplies are compact, quiet and can optionally be remotely controlled via WLAN.

A test system for conducting radiation measurements on 5G millimeterwave devices in the range from 20GHz to 87GHz using a compact antenna test range (CATR) has been demonstrated by Rohde & Schwarz. The new solution will offer 5G RF engineers a great advantage, significantly accelerating time-to-market for 5G millimeterwave cellular devices.

Vehicle construction is an innovation driver in Germany, and according to the report INNOVATIONEN IN DER DEUTSCHEN WIRTSCHAFT (Innovations in the German economy) of the Fraunhofer Institute and the Center for European Economic Research, €52.4 billion was invested in 2016 alone – with an upward trend. The focus is on autonomous driving, and new developments in this area mean continuous process changes, not just for automobile manuf...

In its 2017/2018 fiscal year (July to June), Rohde & Schwarz surpassed the €2bn revenue mark for the first time. At €2.04 billion, revenue was 6.7% higher than in the previous year, while incoming orders rose by 7.4 percent to €2.21BN. The employee count worldwide climbed from around 10,500 to 11,500 by June 30, 2018.

Rohde & Schwarz and Huawei have successfully tested the interoperability of LTE-V connected vehicles with the R&S CMW500 wideband radio communication tester using the embedded Huawei Balong 765 IC as an LTE-V UE. The solution verified multiple test scenarios for internet of vehicles (IoV) communications based on 3GPP Release 14 Mode 4.

The R&S ELEKTRA EMC test software from Rohde & Schwarz fully automates electromagnetic interference (EMI) tests. It also covers electromagnetic susceptibility (EMS) to address both product development and certification in line with international standards.

To pinch a term from the world of football (or soccer for any Americans reading this) Rohde & Schwarz has a full squad for visitors to choose from at electronica in Munich (November 13-16). Under the slogan "Accelerate design. Maximize performance." the company will be exhibiting products such as its family of high-performance oscilloscopes, a signalling test solution for Bluetooth LE, signal generators and several updated instrument families...

Three base models providing frequency ranges from 5kHz to 6GHz, 13.6GHz and 26.5GHz have been added to the Rohde & Schwarz Spectrum Rider FPH family of spectrum analysers. The R&S Spectrum Rider FPH was the industry's first handheld spectrum analyser to offer a capacitive touchscreen and a unique frequency upgrade concept via keycodes.

Automotive radars are often located behind bumpers and brand emblems. The materials of these covers (radomes) should allow the radar signals to pass through as uniformly and unhindered as possible. With the imaging R&S QAR automotive radome tester from Rohde & Schwarz, users in development and production environments can now check this easily, reliably and under automated control.

Rohde & Schwarz and Spirent have announced a partnership to provide a fully integrated test solution, offering full coverage of both the physical and protocol layers for automotive Ethernet TC8 ECU test specifications. As members of the OPEN Alliance (One-Pair Ether-Net) Special Interest Group (SIG), both companies have been working closely with the industry and have joined forces to develop tailored solutions to address the challenges that t...

European Microwave Week in Madrid got off to a busy start as Rohde & Schwarz announced enhancements to its R&S FSW high-end analyser family. All R&S FSW models with a maximum input frequency of 26.5GHz and above are now available with a 2GHz internal analysis bandwidth option and an 800MHz bandwidth option for real-time analysis.

Rohde & Schwarz will present its Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) signalling test solution for signalling RF tests under realistic conditions at Bluetooth World 2018 Santa Clara, California (September 18-19). Bluetooth Low Energy has emerged as a major transmission technology for the Internet of Things (IoT).

With the 5G NR network rollout clearly on the horizon, network operators worldwide are planning pre-commercial network trials in 2018 and 2019. Their goal is to overcome the challenge of a more demanding and complex air interface and to deliver the commercial and technical benefits offered by 5G to their customers.

Making its debut at Mobile World Congress Americas will be R&S INTRA from ipoque, a Rohde & Schwarz company. It offers real-time reporting capabilities that enable CSPs to efficiently glean data insights on subscribers across entire networks, and ultimately make more informed decisions that enhance organisational efficiency and impact.

ipoque, a Rohde & Schwarz company providing deep packet inspection software, has announced R&S INTRA, a new intelligent network traffic analytics solution for Communication Service Providers (CSPs). Making its debut at Mobile World Congress Americas, R&S INTRA offers real-time reporting capabilities that enable CSPs to efficiently glean data insights on subscribers across entire networks, and ultimately make more informed decisio...

Rohde & Schwarz helped the University of Nottingham develop its electric Superbike which took second place in the SES TT Zero race at the Isle of Man TT this summer. The university achieved its highest ever placing at the event, splitting the two factory Mugen bikes, an historic feat never before achieved by a university team.

A solution for analysing 5G NR uplink signals in line with the latest 3GPP specifications has been released by Rohde & Schwarz. The R&S FSW-K145 5G-NR UL measurement application for the R&S FSW signal and spectrum analyser is used to develop 5G user equipment and components such as power amplifiers.

The R&S IQW wideband I/Q data recorder from Rohde & Schwarz can be used to record signal scenarios typically required in test cases at a bandwidth up to 512MHz and high sampling rates. The solution records wideband RF signals and reproduces them to simulate real-world test environments, enabling realistic, repeatable device tests in the lab.
