Rohde & Schwarz Fading Simulator and signal processor, R&S®SMW-B13XT and R&S®SMW-B9 required, retrofittable in Rohde & Schwarz Service (hardware option)
The R&S®SMW-B13XT is a hardware option for the R&S®SMW200A Vector Signal Generator, providing advanced fading simulation and signal processing capabilities. This option enables the simulation of realistic multipath fading environments for wireless communications testing, supporting up to 8x8 MIMO configurations when combined with the R&S®SMW-B9 baseband main module. The SMW-B13XT is retrofittable and must be installed by Rohde & Schwarz Service. It is designed for use in conjunction with the R&S®SMW-B9 and is essential for users requiring comprehensive channel emulation for standards such as LTE, 5G, and WLAN. The option enhances the generator's ability to replicate real-world signal impairments, supporting research, development, and conformance testing of wireless devices and infrastructure.
