IQgig-UWB Tester
Ultra-Wideband (UWB) Test System
IQgig-UWB™ tester is the industry’s first fully-integrated, one-box test solution for physical-layer testing of devices enabled with Ultra-Wideband (UWB) 802.15.4z technology.
The IQgig-UWB is ideal for both R&D characterization, high-volume production, and certification. Making it the perfect platform to enable a cost-effective, seamless transition from the lab to the manufacturing floor.
UWB (802.15.4z) Testing from R&D and Certification to the Manufacturing Floor
- Complete Ultra-Wideband test solution with all signal generation, analysis, and processing contained in a single, robust instrument
- Integrated VSG and VSA covers a frequency range from 5 GHz to 19 GHz
- Enables comprehensive transmitter and receiver testing with over 1 GHz single-shot bandwidth
- Precision trigger and response mechanism to enable accurate Time of Flight (ToF) measurements with picosecond level accuracy
- Combined with the IQ5631 Power & Delay Control Module (PDCM), IQgig-UWB enables per-antenna receiver sensitivity testing below -100 dBm and Angle of Arrival calibration/verification with per-port configurable delay lines up to 80 ps.
- Includes support for UWB technology standard 802.15.4z
UWB Complete Over-The-Air (OTA) DVT Solution
- Comprehensive total solution for UWB ranging (ToF) and Angle of Arrival (AoA) characterization and RF parametric data collection of UWB devices
- OTA DVT Chamber provides a compact and flexible solution for UWB device characterization and design verification
- High performance Vivaldi antenna optimized for UWB testing: high gain across UWB frequencies for improved OTA SNR, accurate phase center for AoA testing and flat group delay
