Rohde & Schwarz has expanded its R&S BBA150 broadband amplifier family with the D series to cover the frequency range from 690 MHz to 3.2 GHz and power levels up to 800 W.
With the new addition, the company’s amplifier portfolio can also be used for tests in the automotive and wireless communications sectors. The models in the new series are available in the power classes 30 W, 60 W, 110 W, 200 W, 400 W and 800 W.
Both frequency bands from 1.2 GHz to 1.4 GHz and 2.7 GHz to 3.2 GHz are necessary for automotive radar pulse tests are integrated in only one amplifier. With a frequency range starting at 690 MHz, the amplifiers meet the requirements of the LTE, GSM700, UMTS and WLAN mobile communications standards.
They feature high reliability thanks to their outstanding mismatch tolerance and ability to handle both short-circuiting at the RF end and an open RF output. The result is low downtime.
The operation of the R&S BBA150 can be manually operated via its display and buttons or it can be automatically controlled via a remote control interface or a web browser.
