Measure Frequency Range 2 Transmitter Error Vector Magnitude

5G new radio (NR) frequency range 2 (FR2) transmitter error vector magnitude (EVM) validation requires wideband waveform generation, millimeter-wave frequency conversion, calibrated receive analysis, and a repeatable path between the device under test and the measurement receiver. The setup measures modulation quality across the occupied channel bandwidth while maintaining level accuracy, timing alignment, and channel conditions for repeatable next-generation Node B (gNB) transmitter evaluation.

The test generates or captures a 5G NR downlink waveform, routes the signal through the FR2 transmit path, and demodulates the received signal to calculate EVM. Engineers can review root mean square and peak error vector magnitude, resource-block behavior, constellation quality, and adjacent channel leakage ratio (ACLR) to identify transmitter impairments across conducted or over-the-air (OTA) configurations.

Validate Frequency Range 2 Transmitter Error Vector Magnitude Solution

To validate transmitter EVM, generate or capture a 5G NR waveform, route it through the FR2 mmWave path, and demodulate the received signal with calibrated vector signal analysis. The solution uses a Keysight Multi-Band Vector Transceiver for FR1 and FR2 base-station testing, supporting wideband signal generation and analysis for gNB and small-cell validation. It supports EVM and ACLR measurements with an OTA ready architecture for mmWave test setups.
