Standalone MIMO-ready V2920A RF vector signal generators or V2820A RF vector signal analyzers can be reconfigured to any MIMO configuration up to 8x8 using the V2895A MIMO synchronization unit
The V2895A MIMO synchronization unit provides RF carrier synchronization and a precise signal sampler alignment between all instruments in a MIMO test system.It distributes a common local oscillator (LO), common clock, and precise triggers to all the signal analyzers or generators connected in the system (up to an 8x8 configuration).This precise alignment enables the system to make accurate and repeatable measurements of W-CDMA and OFDMMIMO signals.The V2895A includes all the connectors and cables to configure up to 8 V2820A RF vector signal analyzers or V2920A RF vector signal generators.
A single oscillator provides the frequency reference and a single synthesizer provides the LO reference that reduces phase jitter and frequency jitter to an absolute minimum. This configuration is superior to one with multiple oscillators and multiple synthesizers connected to a master clock.
