Medium-power transmitter from Rohde & Schwarz for outdoor use
A medium-power transmitter from Rohde & Schwarz is now available as the R&S NV8303VO outdoor version. Its components are enclosed in a compact weather- and temperature-proof housing. The transmitter is largely independent of the existing infrastructure and can be used in virtually inaccessible areas. It can be installed quickly and is especially well-suited for setting up new mobile-TV or pilot-test networks. The transmitter supports the ATSC, MediaFLOTM, DMB-T, DVB-T/-H digital standards, as well as standards such as A-VSB, a technology that Rohde & Schwarz is playing a major role in developing.

Rohde & Schwarz raises the aviation safety bar by adding VOR/ILS signal analysis to its T&M solutions
Rohde & Schwarz is expanding the capabilities of its R&S FSMR measuring receiver by making a VOR/ILS signal-analysis option available. The R&S FS-K15 enables the instrument to perform a complete calibration of VOR/ILS signal generators without any add-on equipment. The R&S FSQ and the R&S FSU high-end analyzers can also be upgraded with the VOR/ILS analysis option. Thus, all of the instruments provide support for manufacturers that develop and maintain aeronautical transmitter systems. ILS (instrument landing system) and VOR (VHF omnidirectional radio) are essential for the safe navigation and landing of aircraft.

Rohde & Schwarz enhances TV analyzer with MPEG-2 analysis
The R&S ETL TV analyzer from Rohde & Schwarz now includes features and options for MPEG-2 transport streams. The instrument combines the functions of an RF TV analyzer, an MPEG-2 analyzer and a spectrum analyzer, transforming it into a universal test platform. This enables network operators to perform all required measurements on TV transmitters as well as cable headends – both when setting up systems and placing them into operation as well as when performing service or maintenance. In the production of TV transmitters or modulators, the R&S ETL is the ideal solution for quality assurance. It supports ATSC, DVB-T/-H, DTMB, DAB and DVB-C as well as the most common analog TV standards.
