Smarter AoA and MIMO Testing with a Multichannel Signal Generator

1 Hour

Testing beamforming, angle of arrival (AoA), and MIMO scenarios is especially challenging in radar, electronic warfare, and advanced communications applications. Multi-instrument setups introduce complex calibration requirements, risk phase drift, and make it difficult to achieve repeatable results.

In this technical webinar, Keysight experts will demonstrate how the MXG signal generator simplifies AoA emulation, beamforming, and MIMO testing with four independent DDS channels, all phase-coherent and aligned to a common reference. You’ll also see how these capabilities integrate with the Keysight MXR oscilloscope and vector signal analysis software for deeper system insight.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Reduce errors associated with complex multi-instrument configurations.
  • Align signals in time and phase with minimal calibration.
  • Create synchronized, repeatable test conditions across multiple antennas.
  • Perform match correction in minutes, not hours, with an embedded reflectometer. 
  • Evaluate power amplifier and multiport receiver performance, including blocking, coexistence, and carrier aggregation.

This session provides practical methods to reduce complexity, enhance accuracy, and accelerate RF test confidence.
