R&S®SATCOM Link Observer: satellite communications monitoring solution for armed forces

Next generation technologies in radar and satellite communication with high data rates call for innovative testing solutions to develop and manufacture RF components like voltage controlled oscillators (VCO). The R&S®FSPN phase noise analyzer increases efficiency and reproducibility of VCO characterization and phase noise measurements from lab to production.Voltage controlled oscillators are oscillators whose output frequency is controlled by means of an external tuning voltage, and they are used in a wide variety of electronic and RF applications like function generators, phase-locked loops including frequency synthesizers used in communication equipment. Different VCO design approaches yield different parameters and performance, and therefore it is important to measure or characterize VCOs under different conditions. This application note provides a short technical introduction to voltage controlled oscillators and explains the most common and the most important measurements made during the VCO characterization process.

The CMX500 OBT is an all-in-one solution for advanced satellite communication (NR-NTN), offering robust capabilities such as multiband and multiorbit support, as well as channel emulation and fading capabilities. Demo video showcasing how the new tool Constellation Insight combined with the CMX500 OBT, simplifies the configuration and deployment of NTNs.

In the last decade, satellite communications projects have emerged that use non-geostationary satellite orbits (non-GSO) making access to the shared radio frequency spectrum even more important.

It emulates real-world channel conditions to validate satellite communication systems. When paired with the R&S®SMW200A signal generator and the R&S®FSW signal and spectrum analyzer, the R&S Space Nexus offers a complete testing solution that facilitates the development of advanced satellite technologies through realistic E2E testing in a controlled laboratory environment.

Rohde & Schwarz has introduced not just one but two new maximum frequencies for the R&S SMW200A vector signal generator, bringing previously impossible high performance to digitally modulated signals up to 67 GHz and beyond. The R&S SMW200A is first to enable flat frequency response and 2 GHz modulation bandwidth above 44 GHz. In addition to all applications already supported up to 44 GHz, the 100 kHz to 56 GHz option covers all currently used 5G frequencies, plus earth-to-satellite applications. The 100 kHz to 67 GHz option also supports planned higher frequency 5G bands, the 60 GHz WiGig band, and inter-satellite links.

This webinar will take you on a tour through the underlying theory behind antenna arrays and appropriate over-the-air measurement techniques using the latest in compact antenna test ranges.
