VSA Software (Vector Signal Analysis Software)

SignalVu™ VSA Software (Vector Signal Analysis Software)

Easily validate wideband designs and characterize wideband spectral events by combining the signal analysis engine of the real-time spectrum analyzer with that of the industry's widest bandwidth digital oscilloscopes, you can now evaluate complex signals without the need of an external down converter. You get the functionality of a vector signal analyzer, a spectrum analyzer, and the powerful trigger capabilities of a digital oscilloscope - all in a single VSA software package.

Whether your design validation needs include wideband radar, high data rate satellite links, or frequency hopping communications, SignalVu™ vector signal analysis (VSA) software can speed your time-to-insight by showing you time variant behavior of these wideband signals.

Features

Benefits

Trigger
  • Integrated RF signal analysis package lets you take full advantage of oscilloscope settings
  • Pinpoint™ triggering offers over 1400 combinations to address virtually any triggering situation
Capture
  • Direct observation of microwave signals to 20 GHz without need of an external down converter
  • All signals up to the analog bandwidth of oscilloscope are captured into memory
  • Customize oscilloscope acquisition parameters for effective use of capture memory
  • FastFrame segmented memory captures signal bursts without storing the signal's off time
  • Supports RF, I and Q, and differential I and Q signals using the oscilloscope's 4 analog inputs
Analyze
  • Extensive time-correlated, multidomain displays connect problems in time, frequency, phase, and amplitude for quicker understanding of cause and effect when troubleshooting
  • Power measurements and signal statistics help you characterize components and systems: ACLR, Multicarrier ACLR, Power vs. Time, CCDF, OBW/EBW, and Spur Search
  • Advanced Signal Analysis Suite (Opt. SVP) – Automated pulse measurements including rise time, pulse width, and pulse-to-pulse phase provide deep insight into pulse train behavior
  • General Purpose Digital Modulation Analysis (Opt. SVM) provides vector signal analyzer functionality
  • Frequency offset control for analyzing baseband signals with near-zero intermediate frequencies (IF)
  • Tektronix OpenChoice® makes for easy transfer to a variety of analysis programs such as Excel and Matlab
