Key facts
Characterization of devices throughout the entire process from R&D to production
Measurements on active and passive devices, while also supporting extreme temperature testing. 5G is all about data, speed and reliability using high frequency millimeter wave bands. The lack of conventional external RF connectors makes 5G antenna characterization challenging. 5G antenna, chipset and user equipment manufacturers as well as wireless market operators need a viable solution for research, diagnostics, debugging and type approval.
The high precision positioner allows very fast and accurate measurements
The positioner allows highly precise azimuth and elevation movements with extremely high repeatability and angular resolution, ensuring accurate 3D antenna measurements.
Various DUT holders and fixtures are available for convenient measurements with different sizes and weights.
An accurate DUT positioning and RF calibration are essential for high precision results. Cross lasers integrated in the chamber ensure maximum precision for proper DUT alignment.
Positioner with laser alignment system
The conical cut positioner allows highly precise movements with extremely high repeatability and very fine angular resolution
The compact design fits into any lab ensuring a small footprint of around 1.3 m2
Developers no longer need large stationary antenna chambers to test and optimize products. This helps avoid measurement bottlenecks. A mobile shielded chamber on wheels can easily be shared among multiple departments.
The R&S®ATS1000 provides a high performance shielded environment over a wide frequency range from 18 GHz to 87 GHz.
The decisive advantage is that its measurement accuracy is equal to that of an antenna chamber three time large, even with its compact form. .
Compact and versatile footprint
R&S®ATS1000 offers a very compact footprint and high mobility thanks to its wheels
The compact setup allows far-field measurement with 0.5 m range length
Antenna characterization for 5G devices can be performed under farfield conditions in a quiet zone size of approx. 5 cm. The R&S®ATS1000 can deliver fast and accurate results in a very small form factor when the whitebox approach is needed
3D device characterization
Measurement of 3D patterns or antenna gain on a 5G NR transceiver module
Far field parameters can be computed based on near field measurements
When the device under test exceeds the maximum size for far field conditions, a near field to far field transformation is necessary to determine far-field data.
In conjunction with the R&S®AMS32 software and a vector network analyzer (e.g. R&S ZNA), the positioner in the R&S®ATS1000 can perform 3D measurements in the near field for fast near field to far field transformations.
Dual polarized measurement probe R&S®TC-TA85CP
The dual polarized measurement probe delivers data from the two orthogonal polarizations required for near field to far field transformations
Perform 3D device and antenna characterization over a wide temperature range
Thermal effects diagnostics on DUTs is becoming a requirement for 5G, since device heating can affect RF components and the radiation pattern of antennas. Engineers no longer need separate testing in an RF OTA chamber and a climatic chamber because the R&S®ATS1000 thermal solution combines both in a single chamber. The R&S®ATS-TEMP option is a compact solution that allows RF measurements on devices in a temperature range from –20 °C to +85 °C.
