DescriptionGenerate and analyze 802.11ad fully coded PHY waveforms for complete component, subsystem, and system performance at baseband, IF, and millimeter-wave. This Reference Solution combines Keysight Technologies software and hardware to provide a flexible testbed for 802.11ad waveform generation and analysis. Software provides the flexibility to generate and analyze 802.11ad waveforms with a wide range of different attributes. Hardware provides the flexibility to support baseband, IF, and millimeter-wave test planes. Create waveform sequences with unique 802.11ad packet structures including Modulation Coding Scheme (MCS), packet length, payload data type, and interpacket gap length, etc.Frequencies up to 44 GHz can be supported with the base test equipment configuration for testing with a wide range of IF's and the 60 GHz V-Band frequencies can be generated and analyzed with a number of different upconverter and downconveter choices depending on application and performance requirements. Additionally, a unique calibration capability enables pre-correction of the generated waveforms to correct for I/Q imbalances and channel response assisting in assessing true device characteristics and performance. This Reference Solution can be used as an independent reference to help debug and validate hardware performance issues as they occur.''
