Product Description

The R&S®SMM100A is a mid-range vector signal generator with millimeter-wave test capabilities. It is suitable for generating signals compliant with key wireless communication standards and is an ideal signal generator for conformance testing of 5G NR base stations.

Here is a detailed overview:

Key Features

Frequency Range

100 kHz to 44 GHz. The R&S®SMM-B1044 frequency option covers 5G NR FR1 and FR3 bands up to 24.25 GHz, and FR2 bands up to 44 GHz.

Modulation Bandwidth

The internal baseband generator supports RF modulation bandwidths up to 1 GHz. The standard configuration supports a maximum RF modulation bandwidth of 120 MHz, upgradeable to 1 GHz.

EVM & Phase Noise

SSB phase noise is less than -129 dBc (typical -134 dBc) at 1 GHz. With option B709, it reduces to -139 dBc. EVM performance for a 400 MHz 5G NR signal is less than -45 dB at 28 GHz.

Flat Frequency Response

Achieves a measured amplitude-frequency response of less than 0.4 dB across the entire 1 GHz RF modulation bandwidth.

High Output Power

Maximum output power is +18 dBm, without the need for an external amplifier.

User-Friendly Operation

Features an 8.4-inch touchscreen and structured user interface. Includes context-sensitive online help, SCPI macro recorder, and code generator.

🎯 Application Scenarios

5G NR Testing

Ideally suited for conformance testing. Features 5G NR Test Case Wizard to configure transceiver testing quickly according to 3GPP TS 38.141.

Wi-Fi Testing

For IEEE 802.11be (Wi-Fi 7), it achieves an EVM of less than -53 dB in the 5.8 GHz to 7.125 GHz range with a signal bandwidth of 320 MHz.

HRP UWB Testing

Ideal for receiver testing with a range up to 10.6 GHz and RF modulation bandwidth of 500 MHz. Supports three specified signal generation modes.
