Product Overview

N5182B MXG X-Series RF vector high performance signal generators are fine-tuned to be your “golden transmitter” in R&D with 9 kHz to 6 GHz frequency coverage. Simulate real-world signals with real-time capabilities with Signal Studio software.

Whether you’re pushing for a linear RF chain or an optimized link budget, the MXG delivers what you need: phase noise, ACPR, channel coding, and more. Take your devices and designs to the limit with the MXG.

The MXG is the pure and precise alternative to the analog PSG, with advantages in size and speed. It delivers the performance you need--spectral purity, output power, switching speed and more--to perform module- and system-level testing.

Generate the signals you need with outstanding hardware performance. Test radar receiver sensitivity with best-in-class phase noise and spurious performance. Shrink your test stand with two rack-unit height. Maximize throughput with fast switching speed. Compensate for system loss, stimulate remote DUTs, and drive high-power amplifiers while retaining signal integrity . Simulate multi-channel composite analog modulation with integrated multifunction generation. Create variable RADAR PRI and pulse width with integrated pulse train generator.

Key Features

Frequency ranges: 9 kHz to 6 GHz

Phase noise at 1 GHz, 20 kHz offset: –146 dBc/Hz

Spurious at 1 GHz (nonharmonics) : –96 dBc

Output power at 1 GHz: +27 dBm

ACPR (vector) W-CDMA 64 DPCH: –73 dBc

EVM (vector) 802.11ac/LTE: 0.4 percent

Benefits

Generate the signals you need with outstanding hardware performance

Test radar receiver sensitivity, characterize ADC or mixer signal-to-noise ratio, or find receiver out-of-band rejection with unmatched phase noise and spurious performance

Drive power amplifiers and characterize nonlinear behavior with industry-leading ACPR and output power

Test wideband receivers and components, such as for 802.11ac WLAN, with the only one-box, factory-equalized 160 MHz RF bandwidth solution

Test a broad range of signals with the most sophisticated applications

Support multiple technologies for cellular, wireless connectivity, video, and tracking/navigation applications with Signal Studio software

Simulate real-world signals with real-time capabilities for LTE, GNSS, DVB, and more

Leverage 1 GSa playback memory and perform long, time-varying functional testing of receivers with proprietary waveforms

Maximize resources with low cost of ownership

Increase uptime with high mean time between failures (MTBF) based on first- generation MXG track record

Minimize downtime and expenses with self-maintenance strategy and low-cost repairs
