Multi Channel Phase Coherent RF Record and Playback System leads a new class of cutting-edge RF instrumentation. This new instrumentation class is poised to revolutionize the way engineers model and test complex RF systems.

Developing for Imperfect RF Signals:

• Our platform allows you to analyze the imperfect RF world
• The imperfect RF world includes non-repeatable signals interference, distortion and noise that a laboratory environment cannot emulate
• Whether in development, the lab or the field, our platform captures the real world RF required for test, quality and real-time applications for your device

Cal-Bay's Platform: An Overview:

Traditional RF signal generators excel at creating pristine RF signals, often with complex analog and digital modulation applied. Unfortunately, these “perfect” signals do not model imperfect real-world signals, which are nearly always degraded by multipath echoes, impulse noise, intermodulation effects and a host of other impairments that result from the complex and time-variant nature of RF propagation in the real world.
 

Similarly, traditional RF spectrum and vector signal analyzers excel at measuring the power, dynamic range and spectral content of RF signals. Some analyzers may even provide a modulation quality metric. Unfortunately, traditional analyzers provide little quantitative insight into an RF signal’s multipath impairments, one of the most important factors affecting RF signal receivability in the VHF, UHF and microwave bands.
 

Our RF System is designed to break through these frustrating limitations imposed by traditional RF signal generators and analyzers. Our platform makes it possible to record (or “capture”) an RF signal in the real world, in real-time, for hours at a time. These recordings can then be played back in a controlled laboratory environment, essentially recreating complex time-variant field conditions in a highly repeatable and controlled laboratory environment.
