Adoption of software defined radio architecture for secure communications is enabling armed and public safety forces to raise their situational awareness, using more capable, interoperable, secure and robust radios. However, radios have also increased in complexity and reliability requirements, obliging manufacturers and operators to invest in new design methodologies and develop a much more exhaustive multidomain testing procedure. In this webinar, we will focus on the main radiofrequency testing procedures that one can carry on with a one box radio tester such the CMA180 or the CMA-XRT100. We will learn basic concepts and evidence with real radios how to operate these instruments to execute transmit and reception tests, IQ recording, playback and verify waveform parameters, in this case using an APCO radio as an example. Finally we will learn how to set up automated test sequences and how to interpret the automatic generated reports, very useful for I- and O-Level Maintenance.

Please join us and learn how you can conduct radiofrequency measurements in the lab and on the field with test solutions from Rohde & Schwarz.
