National Instruments introduced its RF vector signal transceiver (VST), the NI PXIe-5644R. The VST combines a vector signal analyzer and vector signal generator with a user-programmable FPGA for real-time signal processing and control. Built on the NI LabVIEW RIO architecture, it delivers programming flexibility and RF hardware.

The product features up to 6.0 GHz frequency coverage and 80 MHz instantaneous RF bandwidth; support for testing the latest wireless standards such as 802.11ac and LTE; and more than 10 times faster measurements than comparable solutions, the company says.

The solution can also expand to support multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) configurations or parallel testing in a single PXI chassis
