With the increasing deployment of advanced wireless communication technologies such as 5G, Wi-Fi 6, and mmWave communication systems, there is a growing demand for signal generators capable of generating signals at higher frequencies. High-frequency signal generators are essential for testing and validating the performance of these next-generation communication systems including antennas, RF front ends, and transceivers. As a result, manufacturers are focusing on developing signal generators with extended frequency ranges and enhanced performance to meet the evolving market needs.
Software-defined signal generators (SDSGs) are gaining traction in the market due to their flexibility, scalability, and cost-effectiveness. Unlike traditional hardware-based signal generators, SDSGs rely on software-defined radio (SDR) technology to generate signals programmatically, allowing users to customize waveform parameters, modulation schemes, and signal characteristics in real-time. This flexibility enables users to adapt their signal generators to a wide range of applications and standards without the need for specialized hardware. As a result, manufacturers are investing in the development of SDSGs and associated software platforms to cater to the growing demand for versatile & adaptable signal generation solutions.
