New from IFR Systems, the 2399 portable spectrum analyser is aimed at a wide range of applications from mobile comms service workshops to broadcast TV and education.
Analyser stretches to point-multipoint frequencies
IFR Systems has announced a 46GHz addition to its 6840 Microwave System Analyser (MSA) Series.
When combined with an optional high-power DSP card and IFR software, the 2319E can be used as a substitute basestation receiver during early research and development phases of new mobile phones.
The 2319E can be used throughout the product development process from ASIC design to manufacturing test.
The 2319E is a benchtop or rack-mounted instrument for use in RF communications research and development.
In later product releases, the 2319E will add production test capabilities.
Designed with 3G mobile systems in mind, the 2319E operates across a wide frequency range and provides a generous 20MHz digitisation bandwidth sufficient to capture four UMTS radio channels.
The choice of output interface is determined by the bandwidth requirements of the application, selected from low-, medium- or high-speed options.
Data may be transferred in real time directly from the digitiser or captured into internal memory and output in bursts at a slower rate.
In either case, data can be represented as a digital IF (intermediate frequency), or digital IQ (in phase and quadrature phase).
Together this caters cost-effectively for the widest range of test system needs.
The 2319E RF digitiser, the software modules and the DSP cards are all available in eight weeks from receipt of order.
