MWF’s MATEOS integrates SPEAG’s cSAR3D vector array system with the CMX500 test platform in one workflow for automated SAR measurements.
Microwave Factory (MWF) and Rohde & Schwarz have collaborated to enable fast and fully automated SAR measurements on 5G NR and LTE devices. MATEOS, the high-speed SAR measurement software from MWF, now integrates SPEAG’s cSAR3D vector array system with the CMX500 one-box signaling tester in one workflow. Users can control the measurement process through a single interface. This reduces setup times significantly compared to earlier workflows that required manual call configuration and separate setup steps on the CMX500 test platform.
This integration was developed in response to customer requests for automated SAR measurements with the CMX500 and SPEAG‘s SAR systems. The current implementation supports 5G NR standalone, 5G NR non-standalone and LTE. This addresses demand for stable and efficient SAR measurements during mobile device development and certification.
Specific absorption rate, or SAR, measurements are essential for verifying that mobile devices comply with human exposure limits. As 5G devices and wireless technologies continue to evolve, fast, automated and reliable SAR measurement workflows are becoming increasingly important for device manufacturers, test houses and certification laboratories.
This project builds on earlier collaborations between Rohde & Schwarz and SPEAG on SAR testing. By integrating the CMX500 into MATEOS, Rohde & Schwarz broadens its wireless device test offering and helps users streamline SAR measurements for the latest 5G NR and LTE devices with automated workflows.
