Key facts
Performance and functional requirements vary depending on test setup and application. The R&S®SMW200A is unrivaled in mastering such varied requirements and sets new standards for signal generators. When developing and verifying any type of DUT, including components, modules and complete base stations – the R&S®SMW200A easily generates the appropriate top-performance test signals. The flexible modular design of the R&S®SMW200A can be equipped with the precise options that applications need. Any configuration is possible, from a classic single-path vector signal generator to a multichannel MIMO receiver tester.
Quick links
The R&S®SMW200A covers the frequency range up to 67 GHz as a single-path instrument and up to 44 GHz as a dual-path instrument. It can also be equipped with a maximum of two internal baseband modules and four fading simulator modules. This concept yields two full-featured vector signal generators in a single unit, enabling easy generation of complex signal scenarios.
R&S®SMW200A with two RF paths up to 44 GHz
The standard high-end synthesizer in the R&S®SMW200A provides exceptional SSB phase-noise and nonharmonic performance. Several low phase-noise options are available to further improve performance. The R&S®SMW-B711/B721 ultra-low phase-noise options enable best-in-class phase-noise performance. The R&S®SMW200A is perfect for measurements that demand spectral purity.
Measured SSB phase-noise performance, R&S®SMW-B711
The wideband I/Q modulator with up to 2 GHz RF bandwidth covers all applications in its frequency range, including wireless communications, satellite communications and radar. The internal baseband can generate signals with a maximum 2 GHz RF modulation bandwidth.
State-of-the-art D/A converters and excellent RF chain design ensure exceptional modulation frequency response of < 0.4 dB over 2 GHz bandwidth with excellent EVM performance. The R&S®SMW200A generates 5G NR signals (100 MHz channel bandwidth, 64QAM, 3.4 GHz carrier frequency) with an EVM of 0.1% (meas.), or WLAN IEEE802.11be signals (320 MHz, 7 GHz carrier frequency) with an EVM of -53 dB (meas.).
Measured EVM vs. carrier frequency for 5G NR 100 MHz
The R&S®SMW200A offers integrated channel emulation for up to 800 MHz of fading bandwidth. Fading profiles for all major standards are available as presets. Up to 64 fading channels let all key MIMO fading scenarios such as 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, 8x4, 4x8 and 8x8 be configured in a single instrument. Aggregation of up to eight carriers is also supported and SGT100A signal generator modules can be connected for up to eight RF paths.
4x8 MIMO setup with 8 RF outputs
Two-path R&S®SMW200A with six R&S®SGT100A signal generator modules operated from the R&S®SMW200A;
The built-in R&S®SMW200A graphics function displays generated signals in real time. The user can select the type of display, e.g. I/Q vs. time, frequency spectrum, vector diagram or CCDF. The R&S®SMW200A also offers a SCPI macro recorder with code generator, which records all manual operating steps to generate a file with a remote command sequence. Integrated code templates are provided for directly generating executable code for MATLAB®, CVI or Python.
Graphical signal monitoring in real time
Real-time graphical signal monitoring is extremely useful when generating complex signals.
