Beyond-FR2 signal generation & analysis and new 5G NR Release 17 features

The video highlights the pre-launch of the new 67 GHz frequency option for the R&S®SMW200A. The demo covers 5G NR Release-17-compliant signal generation and analysis with new bandwidth and SCS requirements. Signals are transmitted at frequency ranges beyond FR2, at around 60 GHz.

Tailored OTA BTS test solution for FR2

Rohde & Schwarz introduces the R&S FE50DTR (dual transmit / receive) frontend modules. The frontends enable the up and down conversion of signals up to 50 GHz, while providing low-loss transmission at the lower IF frequency. The result is higher sensitivity on the receiver path and more power on the transmitter path. The modules can be mounted close to the OTA test chamber and provide excellent RF performance at a competitive price
