This video demonstrates the evaluation of various RF and baseband performance measures for LTE devices using signal generators and analyzers from Rohde & Schwarz in combination with algorithm design and modeling tools from Synopsys. Based on an LTE Release 9 dual-layer beamforming scenario, the measurement of characteristics, such as data throughput, is being explained as an example.

How to determine the end user performance in a real life LTE network will be explained in this webinar. It provides the key performance indicators to measure and to analyze in order to detect the root of a potential challenge in the network. Based on real life LTE network measurements the coherence of test results will be explained and approaches for how to solve potential issues will be illustrated.

Sequans Communications now uses Rohde & Schwarz test equipment to align its new generation LTE chipsets. The jointly-developed test solution is built around the multi-standard, market-leading R&S CMW500 radio communication tester.

The R&S RTO oscilloscopes combine excellent signal fidelity, high acquisition rate and the world's first realtime digital trigger system with a compact device format in the 600 MHz to 2 GHz class. They offer hardware-accelerated measurement and analysis functions.

Almost anywhere in the world, test and measurement products from HAMEG Instruments are now directly available from Rohde & Schwarz. This is why these products will receive a new logo that contains the names of both companies – a move that is intended to further increase the brand awareness and growth of HAMEG Instruments in both the domestic and international marketplace.

Livingston, in collaboration with leading equipment manufacturers Rohde & Schwarz and Kaelus, will host a new series of seminars examining the challenges currently being faced by the mobile communications industry.

u-blox and Rohde & Schwarz have successfully concluded a simulation of the Russian GLONASS satellite navigation system. The test, carried out with the R&S SMBV100A vector signal generator and its GNSS simulation options, verified the u blox proof-of-concept and the compatibility of u-blox receiver technology with the GLONASS transmission protocol.

At productronica 2011 in Munich, Rohde & Schwarz presented product innovations that meet the high production demands: short measurement times, a small footprint and easy operation. Highlighted products include the high-end R&S®FSW signal and spectrum analyzer, the new R&S®NRP-Z211/-Z221 two-path diode sensors, the new generation of vector network analyzers R&S®ZNB and R&S®ZNC, the R&S®SGS100A signal gen...

Manufacturers in the automotive industry's premium segment frequently rely on FlexRay as a communications interface. They can now benefit from the high acquisition rate and accuracy of the R&S RTO oscilloscopes from Rohde & Schwarz: A new option offers all the features needed for fast and reliable FlexRay debugging.

VAMOS, which stands for voice services over adaptive multi-user channels on one slot, is an extension of GSM that has been specified in the 3GPP standard. VAMOS can double the voice channels of a GSM base station. Rohde & Schwarz is the first company to provide test cases on approved platforms.

Chipset and mobile radio manufacturers are launching more and more products for LTE. Since LTE is still in its initial phase, these products must also support existing mobile radio standards such as GSM and CDMA2000. This is the only way they can function in areas where LTE is not yet available. Manufacturers use handover tests to evaluate device performance when switching between LTE and other network infrastructures.

FM radios are used just about everywhere – in defense technology, in fire and police departments and even on oil rigs. With the new R&S CTH100A and R&S CTH200A portable test sets from Rohde & Schwarz, users can quickly test whether their FM radios function properly. These easy-to-use, pocket-sized test sets are ideal for routine testing.

The Rohde & Schwarz webinar explains the principles of this particular handover - or handoff - scenario and how to test features on an LTE/CDMA2000®1xRTT/1xEV-DO capable device using the R&S®CMW500 wideband radio communication tester.

The Rohde & Schwarz R&S EFL240 and R&S EFL340 portable TV test receivers for installing and servicing receiver systems can handle cable, satellite and terrestrial television. Both are cost-effective and easy to operate and the R&S EFL340 supports DVB-T2 and MPEG-4. Two receivers that deliver all information at a glance.

Rohde & Schwarz UK today announced that it has been nominated for no less than two Elektra European Electronics Industry Awards. In the Test Product of the Year category, Rohde & Schwarz’ FSW spectrum and signal analyser is among the six products shortlisted to contest the top spot, whilst Rohde & Schwarz’ longstanding University support programme has been highlighted as a contender for the Educational Support Award. The awards ceremony, whic...

The R&S SMB100A signal generator, previously a stand-out performer in the RF range, is moving into the microwave range. Even at these high frequencies, the signal source makes no compromises in terms of output power, spectral purity and cost of ownership.

The R&S FSW signal and spectrum analyzer from Rohde & Schwarz outperforms all comparable high-end instruments on the market in both RF performance and bandwidth. For the first time, developers are able to view multiple measurement applications at a glance as well as analyze signal interactions – two important features that make complex measurement tasks significantly easier.

The new R&S DVMS-B40 IP option for the R&S DVMS monitoring family helps network operators achieve maximum operational reliability when feeding transport streams over IP networks. This option is used in the R&S DVMS, the most compact monitoring system on the market today. Depending on the model, up to four signals can be measured simultaneously in a compact, one HU unit. The entire R&S DVMS family comes with an easy-to-use user int...

Rohde & Schwarz UK Ltd has announced the contract award from the Aircraft Carrier Alliance ( ACA ) for the production phase of the VHF and UHF Emergency Radio System for both Queen Elizabeth Class (QEC) aircraft carriers.

Rohde & Schwarz marks 40 years of service to the UK electronics industry.
