Evolving technologies in wireless communications and aerospace defense applications demand higher frequency coverage using complex modulation schemes like multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO), beamforming, and multiplexing to maximize data throughput.
What is and does the N5186A MXG Vector Signal Generator?
The MXG vector signal generator provides consistent and repeatable results ideal for wideband multichannel testing. The MXG’s custom DAC application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) use direct digital synthesis (DDS) to deliver precise signals to minimize distortion and meet the evolving standards for component and module design.
The N5186A MXG Vector Signal Generator is a compact, four-channel vector signal generator capable of signal generation up to 8.5 GHz with 960 MHz of modulation bandwidth per channel that:
- Supports military radio comms emulation and MIMO test with 4 unique outputs in a 2U box.
- Covers frequency range from 9 kHz to 8.5 GHz with best-in-class EVM, ACPR, and phase noise.
- Delivers 960 MHz RF modulation bandwidth using DDS technology.
- Maximizes test accuracy and frequency response with a built-in reflectometer.
- Generates wireless standards-based signals with Keysight PathWave signal generation software.
- Enables fast access to a dedicated team of KeysightCare technical support engineers.
