Two signal generators and four fading channels in one box for 2x2 MIMO tests.
To measure the performance of MIMO receivers, multiple signal generators and a multichannel fading simulator are required. The Rohde & Schwarz R&S®SMU200A Vector Signal Generator vector signal generator can now be equipped with two signal generators and a four-channel fading simulator. This allows testing of 2x2 MIMO receivers using one box. With this solution, you operate the entire functionality from one convenient user interface, without having to calibrate or synchronize your setup. The fader makes it possible, among other things, to simulate the extended ITU fading profiles with correlation between the channels as recommended by the WiMAX Forum and for LTE. The same fading and baseband functionality is available with the R&S®AMU200A baseband signal generator and fading simulator.
