Rent or Lease
The Rohde & Schwarz SMW200A-B106 is the Vector Signal Generator for the most demanding applications. As a result of its flexibility, performance and intuitive operation, it is a perfect tool for generating complex, digitally modulated signals of high quality.
The R&S SMW200A-B106 is the ideal generator for digitally modulated signals required for the development of new wideband communications systems, the verification of 3G and 4G base stations or in the aerospace and defense sector.
The I/Q modulation bandwidth of up to 2 GHz with internal baseband satisfies fourth- and fifth-generation standards (e.g. 5G, LTE-Advanced and IEEE 802.11ac/ad), and the R&S SMW200A-B106 is designed to meet future requirements. Its modular scalable architecture allows users to optimize the generator to their applications and to upgrade it as required.
A second RF path can be added, as well as a maximum of two baseband and four fading simulator modules without compromising on signal quality. As a result, the R&S SMW200A-B106 can create signal scenarios that previously required multiple instruments or could not be implemented at all. From MIMO up to 8x2 and LTE-Advanced carrier aggregation including fading to multistandard radio never before has an instrument offered such high-class signal generation capability. If more than two RF paths are required, additional R&S? SGMA signal generator modules can be connected. The intuitive, touchscreen-based operating concept provides the user with an overview of measurements, no matter how complex, and quickly delivers the desired results.

Rohde & Schwarz SMW200A Spec Sheet
Content is AI-generated. Verify critical details with manufacturer-provided resources.
What is the Rohde & Schwarz SMW200A with option B106?
The Rohde & Schwarz SMW200A with option B106 is a vector signal generator covering 100 kHz to 6 GHz. It is designed as a versatile instrument that can be configured from a single-path signal generator to a multichannel MIMO receiver tester, supporting up to eight baseband generators and up to 16 fading channels. The B106 option includes an electronic attenuator for fast, interruption-free level setting.
What is the frequency range of the SMW200A B106?
The SMW200A with the B106 option operates from 100 kHz to 6 GHz. The frequency setting resolution is 0.001 Hz, and the setting time after an IEC/IEEE bus delimiter is less than 1.2 ms (typically 0.9 ms). In list mode, the setting time after a trigger pulse is less than 0.8 ms (typically 0.6 ms), making it well-suited for fast frequency-hopping test scenarios.
What is the SSB phase noise performance of the SMW200A B106?
The SMW200A B106 achieves SSB phase noise of less than -131 dBc (typically -136 dBc) at 1 GHz and 20 kHz offset, and less than -115 dBc (typically -120 dBc) at 6 GHz and 20 kHz offset. With the R&S SMW-B22 enhanced phase noise option, performance at 1 GHz improves to less than -137 dBc (typically -141 dBc), and at 6 GHz to less than -122 dBc (typically -126 dBc).
What output power levels does the SMW200A B106 support?
The SMW200A B106 provides a specified output level range from -120 dBm to +18 dBm (PEP) for frequencies above 3 MHz up to 6 GHz. The level setting range extends from -145 dBm to +30 dBm above 3 MHz. Level accuracy is excellent, with less than 0.5 dB error from 100 kHz to 3 GHz and less than 0.7 dB error from 3 GHz to 6 GHz.
What are the spectral purity specifications of the SMW200A B106?
The SMW200A B106 delivers harmonics below -30 dBc across the full frequency range at CW levels below 10 dBm. Nonharmonic spurious signals are less than -80 dBc from 200 MHz to 1500 MHz, and less than -68 dBc from 3 GHz to 6 GHz at offsets greater than 10 kHz. The wideband noise floor is less than -150 dBc (typically -152 dBc) from 200 MHz to 6 GHz in CW mode at a 30 MHz carrier offset.
What I/Q modulation bandwidth does the SMW200A B106 provide?
The SMW200A B106 supports up to 160 MHz RF modulation bandwidth with the standard baseband section and up to 2 GHz RF modulation bandwidth with the wideband baseband option (R&S SMW-B13XT). The exceptional modulation frequency response is less than 0.4 dB (measured) over 2 GHz bandwidth, ensuring high signal quality for wideband modulated signals.
What applications is the SMW200A B106 ideal for when renting?
The 6 GHz bandwidth of the SMW200A B106 covers the primary sub-6 GHz 5G NR, LTE, and WLAN frequency bands, making it ideal for cellular base station testing, Wi-Fi 6/6E device validation, and IoT protocol testing. Its support for carrier aggregation, dual-carrier HSPA, and multi-user LTE scenarios, combined with integrated fading simulation up to 200 MHz bandwidth, makes it a comprehensive single-box solution for wireless receiver testing.
Can the SMW200A B106 be configured with a second RF path?
Yes, the SMW200A B106 supports an optional second RF path using B2xx frequency options (up to 20 GHz on path B). This requires the R&S SMW-B13T or B13XT two-path baseband main module. The dual-path configuration enables MIMO testing, and with the phase coherence option (R&S SMW-B90), both RF paths can deliver phase-coherent outputs for applications like beamforming.
