Aeroflex/Weinschel Inc.: Model 8314-X WLAN System Simulator

This specialized subsystem is used to simulate the connectivity between a mobile unit running along a line of 3 base stations spaced from 250 to 1000 meters apart. The test subsystem is able to simulate the variation of the RF signal from the base stations reaching the mobile (as well as the signal from the mobile reaching the base stations) when the mobile is moving at speeds of up to 250 km/h.

AR RF/Microwave Instrumentation: Model CI00401 RF Conducted Immunity system

The Model CI00401 RF Conducted Immunity system (100 watts nominal / 10 kHz – 400 MHz) is a complete, self-contained system for automotive testing. The system contains a signal generator, 3-channel power meter, 100-watts nominal AR amplifier (10 kHz – 400 MHz), directional coupler, and control software.

European Antennas Limited: WiFi Antennas

Three WiFi Antennas (left to right), dual band (2.4-2.5 & 5.15-5.725 GHz) and dual slant polarisation DLPA6-2.5-5.5DS/1314, wireless LAN directional antenna, with flying leads. DSO3-24-54/1177, wireless LAN omni antenna. DLPA7-2.5-5.5DS/1315, wireless LAN low profile directional antenna that can be flush mounted.

RelComm Technologies Inc.: RRS SERIES RF COAXIAL RELAY

This newly configured inline 5 port 2P2T coaxial offers the flexibility of independently operating each of the two sets of switching contacts. The center RF connector port is common to the adjacent output connectors and allows signal path for backup or redundancy mode configuration.

Response Microwave Inc.: SOLDERLESS COAX CONNECTOR SYSTEM SPEEDS BUILD TIME

Part of the COMPEL series of connectivity products, this innovative design facilitates cable termination assembly and also accommodates tight packaging density. These new connectors are available in male and female right angle interface combinations. Frequency coverage is from DC-2 GHz in 75 ohm impedance value and DC-10 GHz in 50 ohm impedance.

Rohde & Schwarz: FSV Signal Analyzer

The new R&S FSV from Rohde & Schwarz makes its market debut as the fastest and most accurate mid-range signal analyzer available today. Virtually all of its performance characteristics exceed those offered by other instruments in its class. In addition, the R&S FSV is alone in offering an analysis bandwidth of 40 MHz. This means it covers a wide range of wireless standards — from 3GPP LTE up to WLAN 802.11n.

Upcoming Events:

European Microwave Week 2008

October 27-31, 2008
Amsterdam, NL

The European Microwave Week now consists of four conferences:

The European Microwave Conference (EuMC)
The European Wireless Technology Conference (EuWiT)
The European Radar Conference (EuRAD)
The European Microwave Integrated Circuits Conference (EuMIC)

The week provides the opportunity to attend these four conferences, and various workshops and short courses given by leading experts in their field. Moreover, the European Microwave Exhibition constitutes the largest trade show on RF and microwaves in Europe.

Application oriented high exposure side events will be held in parallel to the European Microwave Week 2008 conferences (EuMW2008) during the tradeshow to leverage the impact.

The EuMW2008 will also host for the first time a “Women in Engineering” event.

This conference series has continued to grow and is now the premier event in this field in Europe.
