Rohde & Schwarz signal generators present a compact easy-to-use solution for generating phase coherent signals. Different generator models can be coupled to optimally fit user requirements in terms of number of phase coherent channels and RF frequency range. This application note explains how to generate phase coherent signals, gives some background on the technical requirements of the test and measurement equipment, and presents some recommended test solutions. Also detailed is how to best calibrate the relative phases and timing between the individual channels.
