Testing 802.11ad, or WiGig devices, requires addressing the transmitter and receiver portions of the device. In a tri-band device, at various points within the radio block diagrams, the signals may be baseband, intermediate frequency (IF), radio frequency (RF), or millimeter-wave (mmWave). Thorough testing of 802.11ad devices requires three essential elements — waveform generation, frequency conversion, and signal, modulation and spectrum analysis. Characterizing device performance versus the standard requires generating impaired or corrected signals that mimic real-world issues such as fading, distortion, IQ skew, and carrier-to-noise problems.
Test engineer requires specialized software and an arbitrary waveform generator (AWG) to create waveform at baseband frequencies, while signal simulation for IF and RF frequencies needs an upconverter. Conversely, signal analysis uses a custom-designed downconverter, which provides frequency translation to the IF band. A microwave network analyzer offers single-connection measurements for active devices like amplifiers, mixers, and frequency converters, providing additional RF characterization across a wide frequency range of 10 MHz to 67 GHz. A microwave network analyzer can provide highly accurate measurements, such as S-parameters, gain compression, two-tone, and noise figure measurements on converters and two-port devices.
