Modern wireless communications are using increasingly wide bandwidth-modulation schemes, and packet communications are getting faster. Transmissions are increasingly time-varying. Radios often ...

The RF signal analyzer is one of the most versatile tools on the RF test bench, allowing engineers to measure signals ranging from electromagnetic emissions to wireless communications. Most frequently ...

We all love our wireless devices. We want more features, higher data rates, and improved range. These demands, in turn, require advanced digital protocols. Meanwhile, the number of signal sources is ...

A hardware device or software used to examine the frequency and power components of a signal. It provides more information than an oscilloscope, because it can display the signals over a range of ...

Back in the 1960s, when I started working in radio broadcast engineering, an oscilloscope was my “eye” on what was happening with equipment. That tool served me well and is still in daily use in my ...

No instrument, whether in the time or frequency domains, is suitable for all use cases. Signal/spectrum analyzers shine for ensuring standards conformity. Oscilloscopes tend to be more versatile, ...
