Riding the Microwave

Sample microwave applications

Signal generation Simplifying radar testing This test setup simulates distance and direction, and verifies the values on the radar display. The external pulse is used to trigger the R&S SMR. Radar tests (switch position 1 for testing the distance indicated by radar, switch position 2 for testing the antenna direction indicated by radar) Digital modulation up to 40 GHz     Power measurement EIRP measurements     Signal analysis Power measurements on pulsed radar signals Noise figure measurement Scalar analysis with independent generation and spectrum analysis capability Phase noise measurement – cross-correlation to reduce phase noise     Vector network analysis Frequency-converting frontend measurement Antenna measurement with remote mixers
