AT A GLANCE

The R&S®SMW200A is the vector signal generator for the most demanding applications. As a result of

its flexibility, performance and intuitive operation, it is a perfect tool for generating complex, digitally

modulated signals of high quality.

The R&S®SMW200A is the ideal generator for digitally

modulated signals required for the development of new

wideband communications systems, the verification of

4G and 5G base stations or in the aerospace and defense

sector.

The I/Q modulation bandwidth of up to 2GHz with internal

baseband satisfies fourth and fifth generation standards

(e.g. 5G, LTE-Advanced and IEEE 802.11ac/ad), and the

R&S®SMW200A is designed to meet future requirements.

Its modular scalable architecture allows users to optimize

the generator to their applications and to upgrade it as

required.

A second RF path can be added, as well as a maximum

of two baseband and four fading simulator modules–

without compromising signal quality. As a result, the

R&S®SMW200A can create signal scenarios that previ-

ously required multiple instruments or could not be imple-

mented at all. From MIMO up to 8x2 and LTE-Advanced

carrier aggregation including fading to multistandard

radio– never before has an instrument offered such

highclass signal generation capability.

If more than two RF paths are required, additional

R&S®SGMA signal generator modules can be connected.

The intuitive, touchscreen based operating concept pro-

vides the user with an overview of measurements, no

matter how complex, and quickly delivers the desired

results.
