Read this white paper to learn how the Agilent 33500B Series Trueform waveform generators can be applied to generate today's complex modulated signals. These Trueform waveform generators offer a very cost-effective solution for generating many modern, complex, baseband IQ digital communication signals and digital wireless protocols like W-CDMA, DVB and OFDM.
This application note is designed to help you get insight into solving tough measurement problems in a unique way for both the design and manufacturing environments by explaining how to use simulated satellite signals to quickly and accurately verify GNSS receiver operation.
The successful proliferation of GNSS receivers worldwide requires today’s engineers to effectively test GNSS receivers with multi-GNSS signals. A real-time GNSS simulator like the N7609B, with its flexibility, functionality and performance is well suited to address this task. Combined with the power of an EXG/MXG X-Series signal generator, it provides the real-time simulation of GPS, GLONASS and Galileo L1/E1 signals that is so critical to quickly and accurately testing today’s GNSS receivers.
This White Paper provides a general overview of different military and commercial radar systems. It also covers some typical measurements on such systems and their components.
The scope of the subject has
expanded in the recent years in terms of
its technical evolution and spreading of
applications. This application note along
with its corresponding white paper
1MA207 show how to use the R&S radar
product portfolio to tackle test and
measurement tasks in modern radar
technology. Target groups are students
who want to become familiar with radar
issues as well as radar professionals who
want to solve certain test and
measurement tasks.

The new generation of AWGs can address a broad range of applications and test cases. This primer discusses characteristics and fundamentals of an arbitrary waveform generator and the different implementations available in the market.
Testing at millimeter-wave frequencies brings new and different measurement challenges, so minimizing measurement uncertainty is critical in the development of these new technologies. This white paper discusses the challenges associated with millimeter-wave testing and how to optimize your Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) measurement capability to provide the confidence required to make performance/cost tradeoffs.
Learn more about the background of radar systems and the role of transponders in these systems, and why periodic maintenance and calibration of transponder test sets are important for ensuring aviation safety. This application note provides examples of how to effectively test transponders to validate their performance and function, covering topics such as interrogation and reply transmit power and pulse profiling, double pulse spacing, and reply delay timing measurement.
Fiber Optic Delay Line systems (FODL) are used in test and
development laboratories to eliminate outdoor range testing
of radio and radar systems. Outdoor range testing is
costly, complex, and time-consuming.
The True Balanced/Differential technique uses two sources to create actual differential and common-mode stimuli, hence the shortened name true-balanceÂ. This white paper offers guidance to signal integrity designers on the differences between these approaches and which one may best fit their need.
