Demystifying 5G – Timing alignment and delay adjustment of SYSREF and sampling clock signals in 5G base stations

Massive MIMO and beamforming in 5G base stations impose stringent requirements on the clock generator, delivering the SYSREF and sampling clock signals to the ADCs and DACs in the various transceiver chains. The video demonstrates a clock generator from IDT and shows the measurement of time alignment and delay adjustment of SYSREF and sampling clock signals.

The demystifying 5G video series discusses main topics related to 5G including requirements, timeline, frequency bands and key components.
