Upconverter with 40 GHz option yields smallest microwave vector signal generator
Though compact (two height units and half-19-in. rack width, or one height unit and full 19 in. rack width), the combination of the R&S SGS100A and the R&S SGU100A offers high levels of performance. The setup is suited for ultrawideband aerospace and defence applications, as starting from 12 GHz the R&S SGU100A can be used with a 2 GHz I/Q modulation bandwidth. Together with the R&S SMW200A high end vector signal generator with a frequency range up to 40 GHz, a compact system with a maximum of three phase coherent outputs up to 40 GHz can be set up, which is ideal for testing phased array antenna systems. The unit is available as a pure CW upconverter and as a version for I/Q-modulated signals.
