The instrument generates an EUTRA/LTE test signal with the selected chan-
nel bandwidth, frequency, and level.
With these first steps, you have gained an impression of the provided func-
tionality.
For a comprehensive description of the full range of capabilities, refer to the
user manual "EUTRA/LTE Digital Standard for R&S SMW200A".

Using the System Configuration Capabilities for
MIMO Setups
The R&S
SMW supports versatile MIMO configurations and provides comfortable
functions to simplify the definition and signal routing for MIMO test setups and
configuration involving several instruments. For complex routing scenarios, the
"System Configuration" functionality is the start and central configuration point.
Within one dialog, you can configure complex configurations with up to 8 Tx or Rx
antennas or up to two stand-alone 2x2 MIMO systems, e.g. 8x2 MIMO or LTE-A
carrier aggregation with 2x2 MIMO.
This example does not cover the whole range of the "System Configuration"
capabilities but delivers an insight into the topic. The example shows how to use
coupled baseband sources and select a suitable fading and baseband configura-
tion to generate an EUTRA/LTE signal in 2x2 MIMO configuration.
To learn more and to explore the whole range of capability provided by the
"System Configuration" function, refer to chapter "Signal Routing and Sys-
tem Configuration" in the user manual.
