Basics of signal jamming
Discussions of signal jamming were once largely confined to electronic warfare forums. But with the rise of autonomous vehicle technology, jamming has become a mainstream topic. It now pays to know a few basics about both the test setups necessary to gauge resistance to jamming techniques and the principles of signal propagation. Many of the […]
BER analyzer gets multichannel support, FEC pattern generation
The Signal Quality Analyzer-R MP1900A BERT has been enhanced with four PAM4 BERT options adding multichannel synchronization, multilane FEC pattern generation for 400 GbE, Inter Symbol Interference (ISI) stressed signal generation to simulate transmission path losses, and application software for capturing device-under-test (DUT) error counts. The new options allow engineers to more accurately and efficiently […]
