UCC-2023-08 - Supply, Delivery, Installation & Commissioning of a of 320 GHz Vector Network Analyser (VNA) system for Tyndall National Institute, UCC

The Wireless Communications Laboratory, through its Future RF Laboratory, is seeking to acquire a Vector Network Analyser (VNA) system for swept frequency measurements (up to 320 GHz – upgradeable to THz), to enable the group to carry out research and development in the area of the cutting-edge, AI-defined mm-wave/THz radio front-ends. More specifically, the VNA will enable test and measurement capabilities required for RF/mm-wave components, such as passive components (filters, antennas, antenna arrays), active components (switches, phase shifters, attenuators) and other bespoke RF/mm-wave devices and components, such as complete RF/mm-wave front-ends. In addition, the requested VNA, will provide a nationally significant boost in the range of research activities that could be undertaken in the wireless communications domain, and will, ultimately, increase the level and type of collaborations that could be undertaken, both with academic and industrial collaborators.
