The latest software update to the R&S PWC200 plane wave converter (PWC) increases measurement accuracy and refines usability thanks to a new calibration method. With these updates, Rohde & Schwarz extends the possible use cases of its innovative 5G massive MIMO base station testing solution in R&D, quality assurance and production as well as conformance testing. While the software will be preinstalled in new units, existing R&S PWC200 units can be upgraded.

Rohde & Schwarz will present its test solutions for 5G base stations and the associated massive MIMO antenna arrays and amplifiers at Mobile World Congress 2019. Highlights include signal analysis and signal generation solutions for 5G base station tests in the millimeterwave range and an innovative OTA test solution. It is the first solution worldwide that allows the far-field properties of 5G antenna arrays to be characterized at short distances. A cloud based test solution for automated 5G production tests will also be on display.
