The Chroma 42010 is a dual-channel multipath fading simulator that accurately reproduces conditions in which frequency selective effects are not significant. In other words it simulates channels that are commonly termed narrowband. However, the frequency-selective fading with s tandard t ime-delay spread for WCDMA/ cdma2000 and GSM (6~12 tapped delays) are also available upon request. The simulator is capable of generating signals with both Rayleigh and lognormal fading components and offers an exceptional degree of flexibility and simplicity in selecting the required channel parameters.
The MFCS 42010 has been adopted up-to-date technologies that makes it simple to test a full range multi-mode handset through the user defined RF scenarios, especially for smart-phone calibration tests.
This product can fully support WiMAX mobile per forming the simulations for 1 x 2 SIMO antenna design over 1.25MHz-10MHz band width with Jakes multipath fading channel.
The incorporation of both Rayleigh and lognormal fading makes the Chroma 42010 ideally suited for measuring the effects of multipath propagation and co-channel interference and for testing the effectiveness of micro and macro diversity systems. Expandable wideband channel models can be characterized for Rake receiver, MIMO multiple antennas, and beam-forming system designs. The instrument replicates real-world conditions, making it possible to validate performance issues early in the development and design cycle, and calibration tests in the production line.
