The versatility of the R&S®SMBV100A is especially beneficial to mobile phone and car infotainment system manufacturers that integrate GNSS modules in their products, as it allows them to test a range of functions with a single instrument. This is possible because, in addition to GNSS signals, the R&S®SMBV100A also generates communications signals conforming to all conventional standards such as LTE, HSPA+ and WiMAX™ as well as signals for digital radio standards such as DAB, XM Radio or Sirius.<br><br>The GNSS functionality provided by the R&S®SMBV100A also includes the ability to simulate realistic transmission and signal reception conditions through the use of multipath signal generation, by modeling various atmospheric effects and surroundings with buildings and bridges, or by simulating realistic vehicle dynamics.
