Keysight Technologies recently introduced multi-module synchronization capability for its M9703B AXIe high-speed digitizer/wideband digital receiver.
The “new bundle options (-CB1/-CB2) allow multichannel digital down conversion streaming and recording capability on a wideband digital receiver” and are “ideal for applications in 5G, Radar and Satellite Communications, and Aerospace & Defense,” according to Keysight.
Keysight says it also has a “guaranteed recording time, storing all I/Q samples up to full-storage capability […] for long-duration frequency post-analysis.”
Pierre-François Maistre, R&D project manager for the Wideband Digitizer Components group of Keysight’s CMS Division, commented, “In dense urban RF environments where an interoperability and compatibility challenge may exist, the functionality of the -CB1 and -CB2 options allows users to capture and record a long duration of large frequency bands on multiple phase coherent channels. This new capability allows users to characterize all emitters and distortions in the RF environment, including their timing relationships to other RF systems and enable an accurate post data processing, which is used in 5G channel sounding applications.”
