two.1.4) Short description
The National Physical Laboratory [NPL] requirement is to capture high-speed electrical waveforms using a real-time oscilloscope operating over 200 GSa/s. We will use the oscilloscope for 6G R&D activities for future networks. The data will be captured and stored in the memory of the oscilloscope for offline data signal processing. The oscilloscope must have an analog bandwidth of least 70 GHz and an effective number of bits (ENOB) of at least five at 70 GHz. The number of channels on the oscilloscope will be four. The quotation should include the analysis software from the manufacturer. We will also require a compatible optical to electrical converter > 50 GHz with the real-time oscilloscope.
