Parallel Test Architecture
Features "Multi-Generator + Multi-Receiver" design: 10MHz-20GHz high-frequency coverage (Phase noise ≤-110dBc/Hz@18GHz, Estimated from VNA standards). Unique shared generator design (Generator switching time ≤100μs, Core product feature). 16 receivers enable multi-channel synchronous sampling (Phase synchronization accuracy ±0.5°, Product feature). Auto-calibration unit ensures multi-port consistency (80% reduction in calibration time, Product feature). Pulse profile measurement supports 16-channel synchronous analysis (Time resolution ≤5ns, Product feature).

Phased Array Test Workflow
Connection: Direct connection to antenna array with auto 8-port recognition
Configuration: Set multi-channel phase measurement template in 3 seconds
Measurement: 16 receivers synchronously collect phase data
Analysis: Generate beamforming performance report
Multi-Port Phase Boundary
Channel crosstalk may cause ±3° phase error when port count >6 (Estimated from multi-port test characteristics). Mitigation: ① Enable crosstalk suppression algorithm (improves accuracy to ±0.8°); ② Use phase calibration kit (provided with rental).
