Coaxial components cover frequencies from dc to 110 GHz
W1 coaxial components are metrology-grade designed and manufactured to deliver precision performance and repeatability for high-frequency measurements. Comprised of a W1 connectorized power splitter, power divider, directional coupler and attenuators, the new family removes measurement complexity, reduces measurement setup time, and improves accuracy, making them a superior alternative to millimeter-interfaced solutions. Unlike other solutions that […]
Sodera LE Bluetooth protocol and power analyzer now at Saelig
The Teledyne LeCroy Sodera LE Wideband Bluetooth Protocol Analyzer is designed to address Internet of Things (IoT) development with full support of Bluetooth 5. The analyzer helps developers to identify Bluetooth Low Energy data communications problems, such as insufficient throughput, power consumption, and timing issues. Data captured by the Sodera LE can be evaluated using […]
Combined Over-the-Air test solutions accelerate development and validation of 5G NR mobile devices
Keysight Technologies will collaborate with Bluetest to integrate Keysight’s first-to-market 5G new radio (NR) network emulation solutions with Bluetest’s reverberation chamber for Over-the-Air (OTA) testing of 5G NR devices in sub-6GHz (FR1) frequency bands. Leading mobile operators in China, Japan, Korea and Europe are pursuing ambitious plans to deploy 5G networks in FR1 by the […]
