Spectrum analyzers and signal analyzers

Traditionally, spectrum analyzers are referred to as swept-

tuned, super-heterodyne receivers that provide a display

of amplitude versus frequency. Modern day analyzers

offer both swept-tuned and FFT architectures. While the

terms spectrum analyzer and signal analyzer are used

interchangeably, signal analyzer is a more accurate term

for modern day analyzers that provide more comprehensive

signal analysis, not only in frequency-domain but also time-

and modulation-domains.

Benchtop and handheld analyzers

While benchtop spectrum/signal analyzers offer superior

RF specifications and measurement applications, handheld

spectrum analyzers (HSA) are favored by RF engineers or

technicians who are spending more time in the field to fin-

ish their work due to growing congestion in the spectrum

space and evolving RF technologies. To address challenges

faced by these field technicians and engineers, handheld

spectrum analyzers need to be rugged, accurate, fast, and

easy-to-use.

Measurement applications and

measurement software

Available for a broad range of communication standards

and modulation types, Agilent offers PC- and instrument-

based applications and software to address measurement

needs, from R&D troubleshooting to one-button manufac-

turing measurements.

EMI and EMC solutions

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) is caused by the radi-

ated or conducted emissions from a device. EMI analyzers

and receivers can pinpoint frequency and location of the

source, allowing for reduction or elimination of the inter-

fering signal. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is the

ability of electrical devices to operate in the same environ-

ment. Many regulatory agencies specify both emissions

and susceptibility requirements. EMC solutions/devices/

instruments allow engineers to identify both product sus-

ceptibility and emissions issues that don't meet regulatory

agency limits.
