Main applications

  • Third-generation communication:
  • Generation of signals used by novel and future communication systems, e.g. CDMA, WCDMA, as well as wireless local loop or wireless LAN systems such as Hiperlan/2 or IEEE802.11a. In the R&S SMIQ, versatile possibilities for configuring WCDMA signals are implemented with options R&S SMIQB45 and R&S SMIQB48. With the additional software tool R&S WinIQSIM™, the TDD mode in 3GPP and TD-SCDMA as well as CDMA2000 can be generated with the R&S SMIQ.

  • Development of new communication systems
  • In addition to simulating predefined standard settings for all common TDMA systems, user definable systems can be simulated as well.

  • Verification/type-approval testing of digital mobile phones and base stations
  • Preprogrammed standards in the R&S SMIQ provide frame structures for all major mobile radio standards.

  • Use in ATE (automatic test equipment) systems
  • Because of its fast settling of frequencies (<500 µs in List Mode) and level (<2.5 ms with electronic level setting), it is the ideal instrument for fast switching configurations.
