Key Features
R&S®TSMA6B
11User Manual 4901.4026.02 ─ 01
2 Key Features
As in-building traffic in cellular networks grows, there is an increased need for indoor
measurements. While traditional drive test systems consist of a laptop with test mobile
phones and scanners, there are also walk-test solutions that use tablets and smart-
phones.
The R&S TSMA6B enhances such solutions, providing the user with accurate insight
into the RF environment.
The R&S TSMA6B combines the technology of the R&S TSME6 ultra-compact drive
test scanner with a high-performance Intel processor. The scanner can run PC-based
drive test software, and smartphones can be connected via USB.
With its ultra-broadband front end, the integrated scanner measures all supported tech-
nologies 350 to 6000 MHz simultaneously. The future-proof architecture and the in-field
upgradability for both, hardware and software, allow up to 4x4 MIMO measurements
and pave the way for the upcoming 5G technology.
Key Features
●No limitation in 3GPP (LTE, WCDMA, GSM, NB-IoT…) frequency bands up to 6
GHz incl. a Multi-GNSS receiver for uninterrupted location tracking
●More than 10 technologies simultaneously in one system
●Future-proof for upcoming 5G related measurements
●Compact and lightweight design with customized mechanical concept for cascad-
ing multiple scanner hardware
●Maximum connectivity supporting additional scanner hardware, Windows-based
PC, Android-based UEs or tablets using wireless and wired connections
●Integrated 8th generation Intel quad-core processing unit

SCAN port (RJ45 connector)
The SCAN port provides a high-speed 1 Gbit Ethernet interface with an RJ 45 connec-
tor. It is used to connect the R&S TSMA6B to a separate R&S TSME6 as a second
scanner. It can be used for MIMO scenarios and for increasing bandwidth and mea-
surement rate.
LAN port - remote control (RJ45 connector)
The LAN port provides a high-speed 1 Gbit Ethernet interface with an RJ 45 connector.
It is used to connect the R&S TSMA6B to a host PC.
The LAN interface can be used for Remote Control / Remote Desktop Connections.
Alternatively, it can also be used for distributed applications of R&S NESTOR.
The LEDs on the LAN port indicate the status of the connection to the host PC. LED 1
(yellow, link status) is on the left side of the port, LED 2 (green, activity status) is on the
right.

The integrated multi-GNSS (GPS / BeiDou / Galileo / GLONASS) receiver allows to
use three satellite systems in parallel. This offers an accuracy improvement of 30 % to
50 % by using a second constellation of satellites.
Following combinations are allowed:
●GPS only
●GPS / GLONASS / Galileo
●GPS / BeiDou
The R&S TSMA6B can perform dead reckoning in tunnels to provide position informa-
tion even if no satellites are available. The dead reckoning is performed in the device
itself by built-in electronic gyroscopes.
For enabling untethered dead reckoning, see Chapter 5.8, "Calibrating GPS for dead
reckoning", on page 32.
RF IN connector
The RF IN connector is the RF input of the R&S TSMA6B. The multi-band RF paddle
antenna (700 MHz to 2.6 GHz), which is included in the shipment of R&S TSMA6B or
any custom RF source is connected to this SMA connector. The maximum input power
is +20 dBm/10 V DC.
Risk of instrument damage
Do not overload the maximum allowed input of +20 dBm.
Non-compliance destroys the input mixer.
3.3 Removable SSD option (R&S TSMA6B-BEB)
The R&S TSMA6B can be ordered with a removable SSD option. With this option the
system disk (SSD) is mounted in an external SSD enclosure and connected via the
USB3.1 port of the R&S TSMA6B. These disk incorporates operating system and user
data. There is no internal disk assembled / fitted in the R&S TSMA6B.

4.1.2 Band options
The R&S TSMA6B hardware simultaneously measures in all wireless communications
bands from 350 MHz to 6 GHz. Using band licenses, more cost-efficient configurations
are available for applications where only a limited number of bands need to be mea-
sured simultaneously. These configurations limit the number of bands that can be mea-
sured in parallel. You can reconfigure the bands for each measurement as desired.
Upgrade options are available to increase the bandwidth of the R&S TSMA6B from a
limited number of bands to full bandwidth.
Following band options are available:
