[August 26, 2008] Keithley Debuts Tutorial Poster for WiMAX Measurement Tweet (Wireless News Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Keithley Instruments, a provider of solutions for emerging measurement needs, has published a new poster that illustrates the key measurement tools and software analysis techniques required for measuring complex WiMAX signals. The poster provides an illustration for making "easy signal creation and analysis" of WiMAX signals, arguably the most complex modulation scheme in the world. WiMAX signals encompass multiple technologies into one very versatile system, including bandwidths in excess of 20MHz, configurations with more than 2000 subcarriers, high peak-to-average power ratios, and both SISO and MIMO radio configurations. The poster builds on the capabilities of a variety of new Keithley signal creation and analysis tools that extend its RF test capabilities to include WiMAX signal testing. Keithley stated its RF test solutions are based on the company's Model 2820 RF Vector Signal Analyzers and Model 2920 RF Vector Signal Generators. Because these test instruments rely on a DSP-based Software-Defined Radio (SDR) architecture. The poster highlights the powerful RF signal analysis capabilities included in Version 2.0 of Keithley's SignalMeister Waveform Creation Software. Version 2.0 supports creation of the entire range of signals in accordance with WiMAX and WLAN wireless connectivity standards and 3GPP and 3GPP2 cellular standards.
