At the Automotive Testing Expo (ATE) 2017 (20-22 June) in Stuttgart, Rohde & Schwarz will demonstrate its expertise for the automotive industry. The company will showcase innovative test solutions for the development and production of automotive radar sensors used in driver assistance systems.

A highlight is the R&S ATS1000 antenna test system for antennas up into the highest millimetre wave range.

The system is on display as a test solution for automated antenna pattern and power measurements on radar sensors, a solution that delivers precise 3D far-field characterisation thanks to the R&S QuickStep test automation software.

The system is housed in a portable shielded box, making it ideal for development tasks in the lab and for production environments.

The R&S FSW85 high-end signal and spectrum analyser features a frequency range of 2Hz to 85GHz, it can analyse automotive radar sensors designed for frequency bands around 24GHz and 79GHz.

Visitors can also check out the ARTS9510 turnkey automotive radar target simulator.

Designed for development, validation and production testing of automotive radar sensors, it simulates the distance, speed and size of static and dynamic objects.

The easy-to-configure instrument can be integrated into test systems and shielded chambers.

Rohde & Schwarz isalso presenting a universal system for testing vehicle keys and their electronic control units within the shielded environment of the R&S TS7124 chamber.

Thanks to its modular design, the system can be used to test at the printed board and device level during all product phases – from development to product qualification to mass production.

It supports all automotive wireless transmission technologies, including remote keyless entry (RKE), passive entry/passive start (PEPS) and naturally the new time-of-flight (TOF) measurement in both ultra-wideband (UWB) and near-field communications via smartphone.

WLAN standard IEEE 802.11p (11p, pWLAN) specifies a technology for vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications. Rohde & Schwarz offers several test solutions for development, certification and coexistence tests.

Also on parade is a test solution that can be integrated into 11p component and device production processes.

Based on the R&S CMW100 turnkey production test platform with the R&S CMWrun sequencer software tool, the integrated test concept is designed for fully automated, high-throughput production environments.

The security of IP-based data communications also plays a critical role in V2X communications. The R&S CMW-KM052 IP connection security analysis reporting module is unique.

It uses Rohde & Schwarz Cybersecurity software to analyse IP traffic in real time in a controlled test environment, allowing developers to detect and close security gaps early in the design process.
