• No more excuses for mobile phones in weak networks – new test method determines benchmark figures: Test systems

  With conventional certification tests, network operators have limited options for comparing mobile phones. Consequently, they need additional methods to test mobile phones at their RF limits to be able to compare their performance with respect to specific receive characteristics. A new automated test method for the R&S® TS895xG /W 2G / 3G RF conformance test system family fulfills these needs.

• All-in-one tester for WiMAX mobile: Radiocommunications testers

  Mobile WiMAX in accordance with the IEEE 802.16e-2005 standard – the first wireless communications system based on orthogonal frequency division multiplex (OFDM) for wireless broadband access in DSL quality – is about to be implemented. As the first real all-in-one solution for cost-effective mass production of WiMAX mobile stations, the R&S®CMW270 WiMAX communication tester is being introduced at exactly the right moment.

• Audio analysis in production: saving time with 16 measurement channels: Audio analyzers

  The compact R&S®UPV audio analyzer masters all measurements that crop up in the audio world. Two plugins on the rear panel allow the instrument to be adapted to meet new requirements. The R&S®UPV-B48 analog multichannel interface card, two of which can be accommodated on the instrument, is a new option that turns the R&S®UPV into an analyzer with 8 or 16 channels. Parallel processing of all channels makes it possible to save a lot of time in the production of surround-sound equipment, for example, and in particular with multichannel amplifiers for the automotive sector.

• 50 % more output power due to innovative amplifier technology: TV transmitters

  New power amplifiers offer new capabilities. Based on the R&S®NH /NV8200 family of air-cooled, mediumpower transmitters, which have been well established on the market for some years now, a new family of transmitters has been developed: the R&S®NH /NV8300. Although it has an identical footprint, this new family offers 50 % more output power for analog and digital television in band IV/V.

• Powerful, PC-based signal analysis: Monitoring systems

  The R&S®GX430 software is a single-channel solution from Rohde&Schwarz for the analysis and processing of analog and digital HF / VHF / UHF signals. Together with a modern Rohde&Schwarz receiver such as the R&S®EM510 or the R&S®EM550, it allows the received signals to be detected, classified, demodulated and decoded on a (Windows®) PC. The results obtained can be passed to a radiomonitoring system solution for further evaluation.
