The WCA200A Series Wireless Communications Analyzers were developed for designers and manufacturers of wireless communications devices. The WCA200A Series can selectively trigger on frequency domain events that no other instrument can trigger on, they can capture a seamless record of time synchronized RF or base band signal into memory, and they can analyze this data. This analysis includes correlating multiple domains, which allows developers to observe system interactions and behaviors, ensure proper operation, and rapidly troubleshoot problems with a simple test set up.
Multi-domain analysis enables fast, complete signal analysis in frequency,
time, code and modulation domains without making multiple measurements
Extended Memory enables 10 seconds of 3G and 3.5G signals to be captured,
ensuring all the necessary information is available to make a complete
analysis of the signal
Frequency Mask Trigger Available only from Tektronix Makes it easy
to capture fast, transient, or intermittent signals that swept spectrum
analyzers would miss
Fast and accurate measurements at the touch of a button
Spectrogram provides a revealing picture of RF signal frequency and
amplitude behavior over time not possible with a swept spectrum analyzer
Codogram provides a simple, graphical means of analyzing code power vs.
time
W-CDMA Compressed Mode enables analysis of handovers between W-CDMA and
GSM
ACK/NACK and CQI analysis for HSDPA uplink (Requires Option 27 and 23)
Differential I/Q inputs enable straightforward analysis of differential
baseband I and Q signals
Fast measurement speed and exceptional accuracy improve production
throughput without affecting yield
Versatile general demodulation capabilities ranging from BPSK to 256QAM,
as well as selectable filters allow analysis of non-standard signals
