Spectrum Analysers

Tektronix, Inc., a leading worldwide provider of test, measurement, and monitoring instrumentation, has expanded the RSA6000 series to include the RSA6120A spectrum analyser, which extends all of the industry-leading capabilities of the RSA6000 Series out to 20GHz, allowing designers to apply the spectrum analyser's market-leading capabilities throughout the entire Ku band. As designers work with digital RF technology, they require spectrum analysers like those in the RSA6000 series – an industry-leading combination of dynamic range and image rejection at very wide bandwidths. With the RSA6000 series of spectrum analysers, Tektronix also introduced swept DPX® which is proving indispensable to designers in their discovery of previously unseen signal anomalies. Now designers can take advantage of the advanced capabilities of the RSA6000 series when developing and characterising radar and electronic warfare systems and components that operate in the X (8-12GHz) and Ku (12-18GHz) bands. In these applications, designers can use the RSA6120A spectrum analyser to set up automated measurements that allow them to understand the behaviour of transmit waveforms, validate a transmitter's design, and debug problems in a radar receiver. The new RSA6120A spectrum analyser also supports applications in spectrum management, particularly in intelligence, regulatory monitoring, and defence applications. The new spectrum analyser extends the series' signal discovery and triggering advantages up to 20GHz, allowing a clearer understanding of how digital signal processing (DSP) interacts with RF signals of interest. This feature can be used to understand the level of interoperability between radio systems used by different divisions or agencies, for example. With this new spectrum analyser, it is possible to dramatically reduce time-to-insight for high-frequency applications because users can trigger on low-level signals that are obscured or completely missed using traditional analysers.
