These devices also now include UART/RS-232 protocol analysis software as well as four passive probes and three analysis tools as part of their standard configurations. ...
Fast RF Vector Signal Generator Speeds Cellular And Wireless Testing
Speed is a major issue for design verification testing and especially for production testing. Shorter test times reduce time-to-market and can greatly reduce production testing time as well as costs. Keithley Instruments designed its 2920A vector signal generator with speed in mind....
AWG Series Offers Up To 24 Gsamples/s
The AWG7000B series arbitrary waveform generators (AWGs) from Tektronix provide up to 24 Gsamples/s and 10-bit vertical resolution. According to the company, this performance delivers the industry’s best signal stimulus solution for ever-increasing measurement challenges....
Handheld Analyzers Speed And Simplify Wireless Field Testing
Anritsu’s E platform handheld analyzers make it easier for techs and engineers who service basestations to provision new equipment, search for problems that cause dropped calls, or perform routine antenna and line maintenance. The Site Master, Spectrum Master, Cell Master, and BTS Master also can reduce costs and test times. ...
Test Set Adds cdma2000 PESQ Measurement Functionality
Agilent Technologies has added cdma2000 perceptual evaluation of speech quality (PESQ) measurement functionality to its 8960 wireless communications test set. With this capability, the company says, wireless engineers can enhance the end-user experience by providing an objective measurement of audio quality in digitally vocoded voice. ...
Low-Cost PXI Digitizer Promises Superior Performance For Automated Wireless Test
National Instruments and Tektronix have developed a high-speed PXI digitizer that offers a 3-GHz bandwith with a sample rate beyond 10 Gsamples/s and data throughput of more than 600 Mbytes. It also includes two channels per module and can synchronize up to 100 channels or more....
Test Platform Series Enhances Capabilities Of 2G And 3G Wireless Testing
Aeroflex has released the PXI 3000 series modular test platform with supplementary communications standards, designed to allow communications test engineers to concentrate on a range of 2G and 3G wireless data standards using a single, flexible, software-defined system, according to the company. Aeroflex believes its addition of the new Bluetooth measurement suite and WLAN, CDMA2000/1xEVDO plug-ins for the PXI Studio software application and upgraded WiMAX, UMTS, and GSM/EDGE enhance the system’s versatility....
