Exceptional performance for next-generation radio monitoring

The R&S®ESMW ultra wideband monitoring receiver is the perfect solution to address future trends and challenges in spectrum monitoring. It covers the wide frequency range from 8 kHz to 40 GHz with an outstanding real-time bandwidth of up to 2 GHz. The frequency range can be further extended up to 53 GHz with the R&S®CS-MC53 with up to 500 MHz real-time bandwidth. In combination with Rohde & Schwarz single-channel direction finding (DF) antennas, it supports angle of arrival (AoA) direction finding from 300 kHz to 8.5 GHz. Thanks to its exceptional ITU-compliant RF performance, modular upgradability, and rich feature set, the R&S®ESMW provides the advanced capabilities needed for reliable measurements of current and upcoming wideband signals in high-density spectrum environments.
