Measurements included in SignalVu-PC base
version
Basic functionality of the free SignalVu-PC program is far from basic. The
table below summarizes the measurements included in the free SignalVu-
PC software.
General signal analysis
Spectrum analyzer Spans from 1 kHz to 6.2 GHz
Three traces plus math and spectrogram
trace
Five markers with power, relative power,
integrated power, power density and
dBc/Hz functions
DPX Spectrum/Spectrogram Real time display of spectrum with 100%
probability of intercept of 100 μsec
signals in up to 40 MHz span
Amplitude, frequency, phase vs. time,
RF I and Q vs. time
Basic vector analysis functions
Time Overview/Navigator Enables easy setting of acquisition and
analysis times for deep analysis in
multiple domains
Spectrogram Analyze and re-analyze your signal with
a 2-D or 3-D waterfall display
AM/FM listening Hear, and record to file, FM and AM
signals
Analog modulation analysis
AM, FM, PM analysis Measures key AM, FM, PM parameters
RF measurements
Spurious measurement User-defined limit lines and regions
provide automatic spectrum violation
testing across the entire range of the
instrument
Spectrum emission mask User-defined or standards-specific
masks
Occupied Bandwidth Measures 99% power, -xdB down points
Channel Power and ACLR Variable channel and adjacent/alternate
channel parameters
MCPR Sophisticated, flexible multi-channel
power measurements
CCDF Complementary Cumulative Distribution
Function plots the statistical variations in
signal level
The RSA306B with SignalVu-PC offers basic
and advanced measurements for field and lab
See what you've never seen before: The 40 MHz real time bandwidth of the
RSA306B combined with the processing power of SignalVu-PC shows you
every signal, even down to 100 μs in duration. The following image shows a
WLAN transmission (green and orange), and the narrow signals that repeat
across the screen are a Bluetooth access probe. The spectrogram (upper
part of the screen) clearly separates these signals in time to show any
signal collisions.
Monitoring has never been easier. Spectrum mask testing captures detail of
transients found in the frequency domain, such as intermittent interference.
Mask testing can be set to stop acquisition, save acquisition, save a
picture, and send an audible alert. The following image shows a spectrum
mask (in orange on the spectrum display) created to monitor a band of
frequencies for violations. A single transient of 125 μs duration has
occurred that violated the mask, with the violation shown in red. The
transient is clearly seen on the spectrogram above the red violation area
(circled).
