  • Publication number: 20190305994
    Abstract: At least one embodiment relates to generating at least one RF signal based on at least one digital baseband signal at a first clock rate. At least one digital pulse sequence at a second clock rate corresponding to a center frequency of the RF signal is modulated based on the digital baseband signal. Pulses of the pulse sequence are quantized based on a time grid of a third clock rate. A ratio between a number of second clock cycles corresponding to one first clock cycle and a number of third clock cycles corresponding to one first clock cycle is non-integer.

  • Patent number: 10374731
    Abstract: An over-the-air measurement system for testing the over-the-air characteristics of a device under test is described, comprising several antenna units for receiving and transmitting radio frequency signals, several remote radio units that convert radio frequency signals into digital signals or vice versa, and a baseband unit for generating and analyzing baseband signals. The baseband unit is connected to the remote radio units, the baseband unit having at least one physical layer control unit that is configured to adapt the over-the-air measurement system with regard to the physical layer. The several antenna units are connected to the remote radio units. Further, a method for testing the over-the-air characteristics of a device under test is described.

  • Publication number: 20180340975
    Abstract: An anechoic chamber for testing a device under test is provided. The anechoic chamber comprises at least one gas input means for inputting a gas into the anechoic chamber, and at least one gas output means for outputting the gas out of the chamber. In addition to this, the gas input means and the gas output means create a directed gas stream with respect to a predefined region of the anechoic chamber.

  • Publication number: 20180269996
    Abstract: A measuring system for measuring properties of a device under test over the air comprises an antenna array, adapted to receive first measuring signals from the device under test, a measuring device adapted to process the first measuring signals received by the antenna array, and to generate second measuring signals and transmit them to the device under test, using the antenna array. The measuring device comprises a quiet zone generator, which is adapted to perform a beamforming of the first measuring signals after reception by the antenna array. It is preferably also adapted to perform a beamforming on the second measuring signals before transmission by the antenna array. The quiet zone generator is adapted to apply the beamforming, so that at least one adjustable quiet zone is achieved.

  • Patent number: 9113346
    Abstract: An active transceiver array for a wireless telecommunications network. The transceiver array comprises a plurality of calibratable transceiver modules. Each transceiver module comprises a transceiver chain operable to process a primary signal and generate a processed primary signal; a comparator unit operable to compare said primary signal and said processed primary signal to determine a transceiver chain error induced by said transceiver chain in said processed primary signal; and a correction unit which uses the transceiver error to correct said primary signal to be processed by said transceiver chain.
