The new Model 2820A RF Vector Signal Analyzer which provides a 40MHz signal acquisition bandwidth with a frequency range of either 400MHz - 4GHz or 400MHz - 6GHz builds on the capabilities of Keithley's Series 2800 signal analyzer line. It expands the line's applications for testing wireless devices to today's high throughput complex modulation and wide bandwidth wireless telecom standards.
In addition to allowing both manual and automated control through the traditional built-in microprocessor instrument controller, the Model 2820A offers the ability to bypass the internal controller and permits a PC to act as the instrument controller. This enables transfer of I-Q data over a USB at data rates exceeding 100Mbits/second and is essential for investigating channel sounding techniques and for production testing of wireless handset devices. The fast data transfer combined with the ability to post-process continuous blocks of data bursts enables EDGE Evolution demodulation analysis (including EVM, channel power, and time mask) in under 10ms and 20MHz bandwidth WiMAX demodulation to be performed in only 80ms. Furthermore, fast WCDMA Adjacent Channel Leakage Ratio (ACLR) measurements can be done in 2.3ms.
