Hosted in collaboration with Professor Slim Boumaiza, Director of the Centre for Intelligent Antenna and Radio Systems (CIARS) at the University of Waterloo.

As RF systems continue to evolve with wider bandwidths and higher frequencies, engineers are navigating faster plays, tighter margins, and more complex signals than ever before. The challenge is no longer capturing signals, it is turning those measurements into meaningful insights that accelerate design and validation.

Join Dr. Joel Dunsmore and fellow Keysight R&D experts for an interactive, in-person seminar focused on the latest innovations in vector network analysis, advanced signal generation, and next-generation signal analysis. Through practical demonstrations, application-focused sessions, and expert best practices, you'll learn how to skate past signal complexity to score clearer insights.

Step onto the ice with Keysight experts and explore:

  • Breaking the 250 GHz Barrier with Keysight's vector network analyzers
  • Creating the Perfect Signal: Advanced signal generation for next-generation RF systems
  • Precision RF Validation for Next-Generation Wi-Fi Systems featuring the new Keysight XA5 Signal Analyzer
  • Capturing the Full Signal: Wideband analysis for satellite communications featuring the new Keysight XA6 Signal Analyzer

Whether you're developing next-generation wireless, aerospace and defense, semiconductor, or other advanced RF systems, you'll leave with practical techniques and a deeper understanding of the latest RF measurement technologies to help validate designs with greater speed, accuracy, and confidence.
