Datasheet | Millimeter Measurement SystemPart No. ETH-MMW-1000 (version 1A)
KYOCERA AVX presents the ETH-MMW-1000 Millimeter Measurement System,a cost effective, compact and adaptable solution for testing antennas/devices atmmWave frequencies.

Self-Contained Movable System
Compact and portable, the ETH-MMW-1000 frees up space in laboratories andproduction environments. The system integrates its Gigahertz Control Unit,Measurement PC and welcomes a Vector Network Analyzer, a Spectrum Analyzer
or a Radiocom Tester. Easily installed into a new or existing construction, themoveable chassis can be relocated within a test facility.

Accurate and Cost Effective Far-Field Measurement System
The ETH-MMW-1000 includes a distributed axis positioning system, consisting of:• An azimuth mast rotator for rotating the DUT about the Phi axis
• A Theta ring positioner for elevating the measurement Horns around the DUT.
Each measurement frequency band uses a dedicated RF path (High Performance
RF cables, rectangular waveguides and Horns…).
The fully anechoic enclosure provides a shielded environment over a very wide frequency range (from 18 GHz to 75 GHz) andinsures stable gain and phase measurement results.
