Applications

Spectrum Management – Reduce Time to Intercept and Identify Known and Unknown Signals

Integrated Real-Time Solution to Your Toughest Field Interference Challenges

Advanced Triggers and Swept DPX re-invents the way swept spectrum analysis is done. The DPX engine collects hundreds of thousands of spectrums per second over a 110 MHz bandwidth. Users can sweep the DPX across the full input range of the SPECMON Series, up to 6.2 GHz. In the time a traditional spectrum analyzer has captured one spectrum, the SPECMON Series has captured orders of magnitude more spectrums. This new level of performance reduces the chance of missing time-interleaved and transient signals during broadband searches.

Advanced Triggers, Swept DPX, and Zero Span (Opt. 200) provides superior swept spectrum analysis for transient signals. Here, a 150 MHz swath of spectrum is swept across the ISM band. Multiple WLAN signals are seen, and narrow signals seen in the blue peak-hold trace are Bluetooth access probes. Multiple interfering signals are seen below the analyzers noise level in the multi-color DPX display.

DPX Spectrograms (Opt. 200) provide gap-free spectral monitoring for up to 12 years at a time. 60,000 traces can be recorded and reviewed, with resolution per line adjustable from 110 µs to 6400 s.

Discover

The patented DPX^® spectrum processing engine brings live analysis of transient events to spectrum analyzers. Performing up to 292,000 frequency transforms per second, transients of a minimum event duration of 3.7 μs in length are displayed in the frequency domain. This is orders of magnitude faster than swept analysis techniques. Events can be color coded by rate of occurrence onto a bitmapped display, providing unparalleled insight into transient signal behavior. The DPX spectrum processor can be swept over the entire frequency range of the instrument, enabling broadband transient capture previously unavailable in any spectrum analyzer. In applications that require only spectral information, Opt. 200 provides gap-free spectral recording, replay, and analysis of up to 60,000 spectral traces. Spectrum recording resolution is variable from 110 µs to 6400 s per line.

Trigger

Revolutionary DPX^® spectrum display reveals transient signal behavior that helps you discover instability, glitches, and interference. Here, three distinct signals can be seen. Two high-level signals of different frequency-of-occurrence are seen in light and dark blue, and a third signal beneath the center signal can also be discerned. The DPX Density™ trigger allows the user to acquire signals for analysis only when this third signal is present. Trigger On This™ has been activated, and a density measurement box is automatically opened, measuring a signal density 7.275%. Any signal density greater than the measured value will cause a trigger event.

Trigger and Capture: The DPX Density™ Trigger monitors for changes in the frequency domain, and captures any violations into memory. The spectrogram display (left panel) shows frequency and amplitude changing over time. By selecting the point in time in the spectrogram where the spectrum violation triggered the DPX Density™ Trigger, the frequency domain view (right panel) automatically updates to show the detailed spectrum view at that precise moment in time.

Tektronix has a long history of innovative triggering capability, and the SPECMON Series spectrum analyzers lead the industry in triggered signal analysis. The SPECMON Series provides unique triggers essential for troubleshooting modern digitally implemented RF systems. Includes time-qualified power, runt, density, frequency, and frequency mask triggers.

Time qualification can be applied to any internal trigger source, enabling capture of ‘the short pulse’ or ‘the long pulse’ in a pulse train, or, when applied to the Frequency Mask Trigger, only triggering when a frequency domain event lasts for a specified time. Runt triggers capture troublesome infrequent pulses that either turn on or turn off to an incorrect level, greatly reducing time to fault.

DPX Density™ Trigger works on the measured frequency of occurrence or density of the DPX display. The unique Trigger On This™ function allows the user to simply point at the signal of interest on the DPX display, and a trigger level is automatically set to trigger slightly below the measured density level. You can capture low-level signals in the presence of high-level signals at the click of a button.

The Frequency Mask Trigger (FMT) is easily configured to monitor all changes in frequency occupancy within the acquisition bandwidth.

A Power Trigger working in the time domain can be armed to monitor for a user-set power threshold. Resolution bandwidths may be used with the power trigger for band limiting and noise reduction. Two external triggers are available for synchronization to test system events.

Capture

Capture once – make multiple measurements without recapturing. All signals in an acquisition bandwidth are recorded into the SPECMON Series deep memory. Record lengths vary depending upon the selected acquisition bandwidth – up to 7 seconds at 110 MHz, 343 seconds at 1 MHz, or 6.1 hours at 10 kHz bandwidth with Memory Extension (Opt. 53). Real-time capture of small signals in the presence of large signals is enabled with 73 dB SFDR in all acquisition bandwidths, even up to 110 MHz (Opt. 110). Acquisitions of any length can stored in MATLAB™ Level 5 format for offline analysis.

Analyze

Advanced Signal Analysis package offers over 20 automated pulse parameter calculations on every pulse. Easily validate designs with measurements of peak power, pulse width rise time, ripple, droop, overshoot, and pulse-to-pulse phase. Gain insight into linear FM chirp quality with measurements such as Impulse Response and Phase Error. A pulse train (upper left) is seen with automatic calculation of pulse width and impulse response (lower right). A detailed view of the Impulse Response is seen in the lower left, and a DPX^® display monitors the spectrum on the upper right.

The SPECMON Series offers analysis capabilities that advance productivity for engineers working on components or in RF system design, integration, and performance verification, or operations engineers working in networks, or spectrum management. In addition to spectrum analysis, spectrograms display both frequency and amplitude changes over time. Time-correlated measurements can be made across the frequency, phase, amplitude, and modulation domains. This is ideal for signal analysis that includes frequency hopping, pulse characteristics, modulation switching, settling time, bandwidth changes, and intermittent signals.

The measurement capabilities of the SPECMON Series and available options and software packages are summarized below:

Time-correlated views in multiple domains provide a new level of insight into design problems not possible with conventional analyzers. Here, ACLR and modulation quality are performed simultaneously in a single acquisition, combined with the continuous monitoring of the DPX^® spectrum display.

Spurious Search – Up to 20 noncontiguous frequency regions can be defined, each with their own resolution bandwidth, video bandwidth, detector (peak, average, quasi-peak), and limit ranges. Test results can be exported in .CSV format to external programs, with up to 999 violations reported. Spectrum results are available in linear or log scale.

Audio monitoring and modulation measurements simultaneously can make spectrum management an easier, faster task. Here, the DPX spectrum display shows a live spectrum of the signal of interest and simultaneously provides demodulated audio to the internal instrument loudspeaker. FM deviation measurements are seen in the right side of the display for the same signal.

Phase noise and jitter measurements (Opt. 11) on the SPECMON Series may reduce the cost of your measurements by reducing the need for a dedicated phase noise tester. Outstanding phase noise across the operating range provides margin for many applications. Here, phase noise on a 13 MHz carrier is measured at –119 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset. The instrument phase noise of < –134 dBc/Hz at this frequency provides ample measurement margin for the task.

Settling time measurements (Opt. 12) are easy and automated. The user can select measurement bandwidth, tolerance bands, reference frequency (auto or manual), and establish up to 3 tolerance bands vs. time for Pass/Fail testing. Settling time may be referenced to external or internal trigger, and from the last settled frequency or phase. In the illustration, frequency settling time for a hopped oscillator is measured from an external trigger point from the device under test.

DPX Zero-span produces real-time analysis in amplitude, frequency, or phase vs. time. Up to 50,000 waveforms per second are processed. DPX Zero-span ensures that all time-domain anomalies are immediately found, reducing time-to-fault. Here, three distinct pulse shapes are captured in zero-span amplitude vs. time. Two of the three waveforms occur only once in 10,000 pulses, but all are displayed with DPX.

Integrated Solution for Mapping

SPECMON series Real-Time Spectrum Analyzers provide an integrated solution for field interference and coverage problems. The built-in RSA Map lets you use an on-screen map to record the location and value of SPECMON measurements.

With RSA Map you can do the following:

Select a measurement and touch the displayed map where you want the measurement to be placed
Use a GPS receiver (customer supplied) to automatically position measurements at your current location (on maps with geophysical reference information)
Collect and export measurement data (and position data when using a GPS receiver) to common formats to help analyze measurements (position, value, and direction) and prepare reports to resolve interference problems

RSA Map uses MapInfo format map files (.mif) or Windows bitmap files (.bmp) to indicate location. The .bmp format map files can be either geo-referenced or non-geo-referenced. Saved test results give you complete measurement data along with exporting compatibility to Google Earth (.kmz) and Mapinfo (MIF/MID) formats.

Locate interference with azimuth direction function. It lets you draw a line or an arrow on a mapped measurement to indicate the direction your antenna was pointing when you take a measurement. User label can also be displayed (this example shows real time DPX measurement taken from Hospital, School and Park Lot)

Both manual and automatic drive test measurements are supported. The Repeat measurements function automatically takes measurements at a user-set time or distance interval.
