  • Beam switching and beam steering
  • The RI 3101 Butler Matrix controls the direction of your antenna beam, using spatial filtering, creating directional signal transmission or reception. Beam switching (steering the beam) is achieved by altering the input power port, 1-8. Typically a switch matrix is applied in front of the Butler Matrix to control the power input.
  • The Ranatec Butler Matrix is designed for high precision applications, where high isolation and low out-of-phase is of importance.
  • The resulting antenna beam steering and butler matrix beamforming will consequently have high accuracy and suitable for the most demanding applications.
  • The RI 3101 Butler Matrix simulates real-world conditions, directing coverage over distances and across obstacles. This enables true testing of smartphones, sensors, routers and other access points. The RI 3101 Butler Matrix plays an important role in development of Wi-Fi 6 products.
  • Wi-Fi 6 is the most recent Wi-Fi network protocol and is a substantial upgrade over its predecessor. Wi-Fi 6 is faster due to technologies like traffic prioritization, beamforming and OFDMA. OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access) works by subdividing channels into subcarriers and allowing for transmission to multiple endpoints (devices) at the same time. A Wi-Fi 6 router can send different signals in the same transmission window.
  • This results in a single transmission from the router being able to communicate with several devices, instead of each device having to wait for its turn as the router serves up the data across the network.

However, because of the advantages mentioned above, Solid State RF and Microwave Switches are to be preferred if very low insertion loss and/or very high isolation is not needed.

A RF coaxial switch/Microwave solid-state switch provides excellent performance with fast switching speed across a broad frequency range. A Ranatec RF coaxial switch/solid state switch provides safe and accurate tests of sensitive RF components. Applications include instrumentation, defense, communications, radar, antenna, and many other test systems that require high-speed RF switching. The long operating life of Ranatec’s RF coaxial switches/Microwave solid state switches makes them excellent in large-scale applications. If your company carries out high-volume

Solutions

Wireless Test Automation

Products and complete systems that rationalise wireless test set-ups: RF switching and routing, signal conditioning (digital attenuators, RF filters), tunable notch/band reject filters for spurious-emission tests and channel emulation — from discrete modules to complete test automation solutions tailored to customer demands.

  • Wireless test automation has become a necessity to stay ahead in the race for more capable products and systems. With mobile devices covering multiple standards in multiple frequency bands using multiple antennas, conformance testing to demonstrate fulfilment of regulatory radio requirements is a key element in the product release process.
  • RF switching and routing products: using high quality RF switches and couplers, any RF-signal path can be set up to interconnect any device under test to any external or internal test port.
  • Signal conditioning products such as digital attenuators and RF filters assure the right power level and bandwidth at any port in an RF test set-up.
  • Advanced dedicated instruments enable accurate spurious emissions tests (wide-range electronically tunable notch filter) and channel emulators for performance verification under realistic conditions in a laboratory.
  • Applications span the whole life-cycle: early development and evaluation, product release and certification, production testing and in-service performance assessment.

technical-article

Discover RF shield boxes and test enclosures for 5G, WiFi, Bluetooth/BLE & IoT device testing. Ensure accurate DUT measurements in RF-noisy environments.

RF Shielding is Critical for 5G, WiFi and Bluetooth Testing Modern civilization is sizzling with radio frequency (RF) noise. The amount of communication devices is huge. In particular mobile, WiFi and Bluetooth applications for human and machine-to-machine wireless communication fills the air with RF waves. We discuss here the need for RF shielding in test and measurement labs.

There is a constant flow of new devices being designed. One line of development is for improved and expanded functionality of smart devices, and an opposite trend is the built-in radios in equipment like sensor systems and vending machines. The latter is called the Internet-of-Things (IoT).

You Need a Tunable Bandreject Filter with Sharp Slopes for Spurious Emission Measurements

technical-article

Why a tunable bandreject filter with sharp slopes is needed for spurious emission measurements in RF compliance testing of mobile communication devices

Today's society is overwhelmed by communication devices. To coexist, these devices must take turns in time, so-called time division duplex (TDD), or use different frequency bands, frequency division duplex (FDD). Both are used for mobile communication devices. Therfore it is very important that a device has sufficient suppression of spurious emissions, i.e. transmissions outside of the operating frequency band.

The requirement for spurious emissions according to the certification standard is that they should be lower than 50 dBm in any 1 MHz band everywhere except in the operating band and its nearest neighbouring bands of the same width. So for a 100 MHz wide operating channel, the emissions need to be suppressed except within 100 MHz of the operating channel band edges and for a 10 MHz channel within 10 MHz of the edges. The most severe case is at maximum transmit power, which is +23 dBm.

Tunable bandreject filters compared to tunable notch filters

technical-article

Why a tunable bandreject filter is superior to a notch filter for RF compliance testing of modern communication devices.

In the early days of radio and microwave communications, tunable notch filters were invented to filter out narrow band interferers. For example, there could be an external signal or internally generated spurious mixing product that disturbed the performance.

The typical tunable notch filter transmission looks like this: and we can clearly see that signals at or very close to 5900 MHz are rejected.
