OUTSTANDING RF PERFORMANCE The FSW redefines the top of the line for signal and spectrum analyzers, offering superior RF performance in terms of phase noise, displayed average noise level, intermodulation suppression and dynamic range for ACLR and harmonic measurements. Unmatched phase noise: ideal for measuring oscillators for radar and communications applications Excellent dynamic range for spurious measurements thanks to low DANL Developers of oscillators, synthesizers and transmit systems benefit from the FSW analyzer’s excellent RF performance for phase noise measurements. At 10 kHz...

Harmonic measurements made easy thanks to integrated highpass filters Unparalleled dynamic range up to 1 GHz with separate receive path The FSW can optionally be equipped with switchable highpass filters (R&S®FSW‑B13) for carrier frequencies up to 1.5 GHz for harmonic measurements on transmit systems. This preselection clearly improves the dynamic range compared with conventional spectrum analyzers. External filters are no longer needed, which simplifies test system setups. The FSW has a separate receive path optimized for frequencies < 1 GHz. This yields a previously unattained dynamic...

Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT) The R&S®FSW‑K106 covers all three operating modes (in‑band, guard band and out-of‑band) for base station testing in line with the 3GPP specification. It delivers signal modulation results as well as out-of‑band spectral measurements (ACLR and SEM). The timing alignment measurement is included to be able to easily measure the timing between transmitters in MIMO operation. To simplify signal analysis, several parameters such as cell ID and modulation formats are automatically detected. Wireless connectivity: WLAN IEEE 802.11ax/be The latest WLAN standards such as WLAN...

EXTENSIVE RADAR ANALYSIS FUNCTIONS Extensive analysis functions and fast identification of spurious emissions are essential prerequisites when testing modern radar systems with their wideband signals, intrapulse modulation techniques and frequency hopping capabilities. Fast and comprehensive radar signal analysis Detailed pulse compression radar measurements The R&S®FSW‑K6 pulse measurement application measures all relevant pulse parameters such as pulse duration, pulse period, pulse rise and fall times, power drop across a pulse and intrapulse phase modulation at the touch of a button. It...

The FSW automatically calculates the chirp rate and the deviation from the ideal FMCW chirp to enable efficient radar sensor optimization. The R&S®FSW-K60P transient phase noise extension adds phase noise measurements to individual chirps or hops in the measurement results. The R&S®FSW‑K60 with the R&S®FSW‑K60H transient hop measurement option is a convenient tool for analyzing signals with fast channel-switching characteristics such as those that occur in frequency hopping radios. Results include dwell time/hop, switching time, frequency and deviation. The analyzer shows trends and...
