Rohde & Schwarz has launched the ATS1500C antenna check system for automotive radar module improvement, validation, calibration and compliance testing.
Antenna improvement is a really advanced course of because it consumes not solely time and a considerable amount of assets nevertheless it additionally requires the flexibility to operate correctly over a variety of temperatures. An antenna might come throughout quite a lot of purposes. The warmth dissipated from the gadgets that incorporate an antenna can have an effect on the trans-receiving skill of the antenna in addition to the standard of fabric.
The R&S ATS1500C antenna check system from Rohde & Schwarz presents a brand new temperature check choice and a brand new feed antenna. These further options allow temperature-controlled measurements in a large temperature vary in addition to parallel entry to each polarizations, rising check effectivity and suppleness.
The R&S ATS1500C is a compact antenna check vary (CATR) primarily based antenna check chamber and will be simply moved throughout house. It eliminates ghost targets inside the chamber throughout goal simulation exams and features a extremely correct positioner for angular measurements.
The ARC-TEMP temperature check choice generates a temperature managed atmosphere for RADAR starting from -40 °C to +85 °C. The exterior thermal air stream system provides the air to the temperature bubble mounted on the positioner to supply heated and cooled air.
As well as, the R&S ARC-FX90 common feed antenna helps 60 GHz to 90 GHz The antenna contains an orthomode transducer, which allows parallel entry to vertical and horizontal polarizations.
With addition to those options the builders can effectively characterize RF transmitters, calibrate antenna manifolds, measure antenna patterns, check robustness towards interference, verify compliance with laws equivalent to ETSI and FCC in addition to plan testing and calibration procedures for later mass manufacturing.
