The European Space Agency (ESA), MediaTek, Eutelsat, Airbus, Sharp, ITRI, and Rohde & Schwarz are highlighting what they describe as world’s first Rel-19 5G-Advanced NR-NTN connection over LEO satellites. The connection uses OneWeb (Eutelsat) satellites with Ku-band conditional handover. And NR-NTN stands for New Radio-Non-Terrestrial Network. Rel-19 Note that 5G-advanced has also been dubbed as 5.5G. The 3GPP Release 19 ...

IMS2025: Cross-correlation spectrum analyser from R&S

RnS FSWX spectrum analyser cross corellation

Rohde & Schwarz will demonstrate FSWX3044, a twin-input 44GHz spectrum analyser with cross-correlation measurement at IMS2025 in San Francisco. The company emphasises a novel multi-path architecture that supports a cross-correlation mode, explaining: A single signal input is internally split into two independent signal paths, each equipped with its own local oscillator and ADC. With this design, cross-correlation algorithms can be ...

Wide-band modulated load pull testing

R AND S Modulated Load Pull 750b

Rohde & Schwarz is claiming to have invented a new test set-up for verifying power amplifier performance when connected to an antenna, which typically shows a dispersive impedance, by swapping the vector network analyser for an oscilloscope. It is based on the company’s RTP084 scope, equipped with the wide-band modulated load-pull option (RTP-K98) and paired with its SMW200A vector signal ...

Testing Wi-Fi 7 devices for multi-path resilience

Bluetest RTS65

Bluetest and Rohde & Schwarz have created a MIMO stress testing perform for IEEE 802.11be  (Wi-Fi 7) equipment. It consists of R&S one-box CMX500 signaling tester (right), a Bluetest RF reverberation chamber – its RTS65, for example (below left), and Bluetest’s Flow control software. “In contrast to anechoic test chambers, reverberation chambers extensively reflect an RF signal inside the chamber, ...
