Technical Deep Dive
Integrated Test Architecture
Features "Sequencer-Controlled VSA/VSG + Precision Multiport Matrix" design: Test sequencer enables parallel receiver testing on 8 ports while fast-switching transmitter measurements (<100µs port switching) (Source: Input description). Integrated calibration engine maintains metrology-grade accuracy (±0.1dB amplitude flatness) across all 12 ports. X-Series measurement core provides standards-compliant modulation analysis (EVM <1% for 256QAM), reducing need for external instruments by 70%.
| Technical Dimension | E6607C | External Multiport Solution | Advantage |
|---|---|---|---|
| System Footprint | 1RU main unit | Analyzer + external multiport (3-4RU) | 60% rack space reduction |
| Measurement Speed | Parallel RX test + <100µs TX switching | Sequential port switching (1-2ms) | 10-20x faster multi-DUT testing |
Smartphone Production Test Workflow
Connection: 8 smartphones connected to cellular ports, GNSS antenna to port 9-12, USB keyboard/mouse for local control
Configuration: Load "LTE+GPS Verification" sequence → auto-configures:
- Cellular: LTE Band 7 TX power (2.6GHz), EVM measurement
- GNSS: GPS L1 C/A signal simulation (-130dBm)Parallel Testing:
- Simultaneous RX sensitivity test on all 8 cellular ports
- Sequential TX measurement (100µs port switching)
- Continuous GNSS signal reception verificationOutput: Auto-generate PASS/FAIL report per device, log data to MES via LAN
High-Frequency Measurement Boundary
GNSS testing limited to L1 band (1575MHz) - does not support Galileo E5/L5 bands (Based on frequency range description). Mitigation: ① For multi-band GNSS, use external signal generator; ② Add optional frequency extension module (requires hardware upgrade).
