One-Port VNA Improves 5G Antenna and Device Measurements

摘要

The demand for antennas and other one-port devices for 5G systems requires testing in the sub-8 GHz and 28 to 39 GHz 5G bands. An-ritsu's ShockLine MS46131A one-port vector network analyzer (VNA) is the only lightweight, portable solution that uses Extended-K™ ports and guarantees performance to 43.5 GHz. Extending the upper frequency to 43.5 GHz for return loss measurements provides better time domain resolution to ensure signal integrity and optimize material measurements.
