The new application note “Solutions for Design and Test of 8x8 LTE MIMO” 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 combine simulation with test solutions to realize high-performance 8x8 MIMO designs.
Trying to increase battery life? Trying to be green or increase energy efficiency? If so, then current consumption is most likely one of your key concerns. Today's multi-tasking, battery-powered devices boast powerful processors, incorporate back-lit touch-screen displays, and have amassed multiple radio receivers and transmitters that are sending and receiving data at unprecedented rates.
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.
The "Testing New-generation Wireless LAN" application note discusses the differences between 802.11ac (designed for Very High Throughput - VHT) and previous WLAN standards, the test requirements and the new challenges VHT brings. The application note also introduces the WLAN new-generation testing technology of 802.11ac and explains in detail Agilent's 802.11ac software which allows engineers to view and troubleshoot all 802.11ac modulation formats.
The IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) dates
from 3GPP release 5 almost a decade ago,
but is now becoming a reality with the rollout
of IMS-based LTE networks. IMS enables
convergence on multiple fronts, including
access types (fixed, mobile), service types,
application control functions and convergence
between telephony and traditional data
delivery. This paper presents a high-level technical
view of the IMS architecture as seen by LTEcapable
User Equipment (UE).
The LO harmonic effects on I/Q errors and sideband suppression (SBS) in the RF modulator
was analyzed in application report SLWA059. This application report further investigated LO
harmonic effects when attempting to achieve an increased level of SBS performance.
In this paper we take a closer look at various OFDMA based Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) for Homeland Security (HLS) applications and their implementation. Our primary focus is to understand the capabilities required from these applications and to show how flexibility and controllability of system components can help address these requirements.
Signals intelligence describes a broad range of applications ranging from communications jamming to identification of interference or pirating signals. While this paper discusses many of the
specific needs for each application, it primarily focuses on the techniques required to analyze intermittent or "bursty" RF signals.
