RF Vector Signal Generator for Cellular Technology Developers

( 1 Mar 2007 )

PrecisionWave Corp. announces the release of the p1511A, a low-cost RF Vector Signal Generator. The p1511A generates digitally modulated and CW signals in the 800MHz to 1GHz and 1.7GHz to 2.2GHz cellular bands for developers and testers of cellular technology-based products. The instrument’s I/Q generator produces high-accuracy signals for any digital modulation scheme used in these bands. As examples, EDGE average RMS EVM (Error Vector Magnitude) is typically less than 0.8%, and GSM phase error is below 1°. With a -100dBM to +20dBm power output range, harmonic suppression is better than -40dBc @ +13dBm, and spurious is below -80dBc. These specifications compare very favorably with instruments costing several times more than the p1511A. PrecisionWave
