– Typical Applications
Radar system characterization, satellite communication testing, high-speed digital signal evaluation, and pulse-based device performance analysis at millimeter-wave frequencies.
– Compatibility & Integration
The SM6630 operates exclusively with Anritsu MS4640B Series Vector Network Analyzers configured with Option 35 (IF Digitizer) and Option 42 (PulseView™). Direct Access Loops are required for system integration. The measurement frequency range is constrained by the capabilities of the connected VNA model.
