Morgan Hill, CA – 10/31/2023 – Anritsu Company announces that its Rubidium™ MG36271A signal generator and PhaseLync™-enabled ShockLine™ ME786xA modular vector network analyzer (VNA) were recognized among the best by the 2023 Military + Aerospace Electronics (MAE) Innovators Awards. Votes placed by the engineering community recognized Anritsu’s test solutions as Silver award winners in the Test category.

The 2023 MAE Innovators Awards celebrates outstanding innovation in defense and aerospace for the engineering industry. Every year, it showcases and rewards companies, designers, and innovators who have contributed to the advancement of technology through their creative and impactful designs. 

2023 MAE Innovators Award winners are chosen by the qualified judging panel selected by the editorial staff at Military + Aerospace Electronics. Platinum, Gold, and Silver honorees are revealed every fall. Silver recognizes a very good innovation that resulted in not just incremental improvement but marked improvement over previous methods employed, approaches taken, or products/systems used.

Innovative Test Solutions 
Covering 9 kHz to 70 GHz, the Rubidium MG36271A has industry-best signal purity, output power, and frequency stability. It has phase noise of -136 dBc/Hz (typical) and -140 dBc/Hz (measured) at 10 GHz and 10 kHz offset and very low harmonics for unprecedented signal purity. With a robust output power of +9 dBm at 70 GHz, MG36271A addresses a range of measurement applications in the Q/V band.

The ShockLine ME7868A/ME7869A system is the first distributed, fully reversing 2-port VNA that provides guaranteed performance from 1 MHz to 43.5 GHz by utilizing Anritsu’s Extended-K™ components. Powered by the revolutionary PhaseLync technology, it enables engineers to synchronize two portable ShockLine MS46131A VNAs and connect them directly to a DUT to conduct vector transmission measurements at distances up to 100 meters.
