4.2 Band Options
Option Concept
Option Sharing Concept
The R&S TSME6 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 measured simultaneously.
These configurations limit the number of bands that can be measured in parallel. You
can reconfigure the bands for each measurement as desired. Upgrade options are
available to increase the bandwidth of the R&S TSME6 from a limited number of bands
to full bandwidth. Following band options are available:
Table 4-2: Available R&S TSME6 band options

4.3 Option Sharing Concept
Definition TSME Group
A group of TSMEs are all TSME or TSME6 receivers, which are loaded by a TSME
Admin (independent of their synchronization).
Technology Options
As soon as a technology option is valid on at least one TSME or TSME6 of the group,
it is allowed to perform measurements on all connected receivers for this technology in
the allowed frequency bands of the respective receiver.
13User Manual 4900.0033.02 ─ 04
R&S®TSME6
Option Concept
Option Sharing Concept
Allowed Frequency Bands
An "All Band Option" (KAB) allows to measure the complete frequency band supported
by the hardware. On a TSME6, the complete frequency band is slightly larger than on
a TSME.
If there is no "All Band Option" (KAB) in a receiver, but only a non-empty set of band
options for 1 to 5 bands (K1B, ... K5B) each, then the upper limited number of bands
can be selected from a table for this receiver, which are then allowed for all measurements.
The number of bands to be measured simultaneously is the sum of all activation numbers x from valid KxB options with a maximum of 5.
Example:
If two K1B and one K2B are installed on a TSME6, then it is permitted to measure in 4
bands simultaneously for this TSME6.
Special Scenario: MIMO
If a K300 is installed on a TSME or TSME6, then a measurement for technology option
index 130 (LTE MIMO) can be made on this TSME or TSME6 on all frequencies supported by the hardware.
The 5G NR FR2 demodulation with several TSME6 is also supported.

Danger of shock!
To avoid a shock hazard and instrument damage, note the following:
●
After moisture condensation, allow the instrument to dry before switching on.
●
The instrument is still power-supplied while it is in standby mode, that is, with the
power button switched off, but still connected with the DC power supply.
●
After connecting the power supply, the instrument is immediately under power.
●
The supplied DC connector is intended for disconnection.
●
If any DC supply other than R&S TSME6-Z1 is used:
– The DC supply must be in accordance with IEC / EN / UL / CSA 60950-1 or
IEC / EN / UL / CSA EN EN61010-1.
– Use only Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) power supplies
– Observe the DC input range of 10 V to 27 V with maximum of 1.8 A (inrush cur-
rent)
– The 12 V vehicle cigarette lighter socket must be fused
