Keysight Introduces High-performance VXG microwave signal generators to address wideband mmWave applications for 5G and satellite communications
To stay competitive, industries are constantly trying to get communication products to market faster, increasing the demand for improvements in 5G designs, test, measurements, and tools. Keysight has introduced their latest microwave signal generators to address the most demanding wideband millimeter wave (mmWave) applications for 5G and satellite communications by decreasing test set-up complexity and reducing path losses introduced in over-the-air (OTA) test environments.
Keysight’s new VXG microwave signal generators support the next frontier of cellular technology with the following key benefits:
- World’s first dual-channel 44 GHz vector signal generation with up to 2 GHz RF modulation bandwidth in a single test instrument that simplifies test setup.
- Industry’s highest output power versus error vector magnitude (EVM) and adjacent channel power ratio (ACPR) performance that provides low OTA test system path loss.
- Accelerated product development with Keysight’s PathWave Signal Generation, a software suite with access to a wide range of evolving standards-compliant 3GPP 5G NR signals for testing base stations, mobile terminal transmitters and receivers.

Keysight’s VXG signal generators offer designers and manufacturers of wireless equipment a wide range of advanced features, including:
- Unmatched RF performance that optimizes measurement integrity and minimizes uncertainty for wide bandwidths at millimeter wave frequencies
- A new graphical user interface for 5G NR that delivers a streamlined experience when creating standard-compliant test signals
- User-centric interface — multi-touch and modular — that deliver identical performance while addressing specific needs unique to R&D and manufacturing environments
