3 System Overview
The R&S
SFE100 has been designed as a platform for different applications and for
future options. It provides a number of instruments and applications and offers unri-
valed RF and baseband characteristics.
Due to its modular design, the R&S
SFE100 can be optimally adapted to the require-
ments of different applications. It is an ideal research and development tool for making
improvements to introduced standards and for generating new standard signals. Appli-
cations that previously required many different instruments are now fully covered by
the R&S
SFE100.
The modern, intuitive concept of the R&S
SFE100 ensures fast and easy operation.
You can easily switch operating parameters (e.g. roll-off, puncturing rate, QAM mode)
and select operating parameters whose values exceed those defined in the standard
for lab applications. For special tasks such as in DVB-T/H, modulation, individual carri-
ers and carrier groups can be deactivated. Sweeps across the entire RF range are
possible.
