What applications and measurements today require the mmW EXA's?
There are customers that require frequency coverage beyond 26.5 GHz but below 32/44 GHz.
Applications include:
- Radar/EW, LMDS (Local Multiport Distribution System) networks
- Satellite communications
- Wireless backhaul
Measurements include:
- 2nd harmonics of signals in the Ku-Band (12-18 GHz)
- 2nd harmonics at the lower end of the K-Band (15-26.5 GHz)
- 3rd harmonics of X-Band (~7-12 GHz)
Applications that require the frequency coverage beyond 44 GHz can use a combination of external mixer with the mmW EXA that has option EXM, External Mixing.
