Spectrum analyzer software FAQs
What is a spectrum analyzer used for?
A spectrum analyzer is used to measure the power of the spectrum of known and unknown signals. These test instruments measure the amplitude of an input signal versus frequency within the full frequency range of the instrument.
What is a spectrum analyzer software?
Software for spectrum analyzers is a common tool used by radio frequency (RF) engineers. It allows you to control the acquisition, processing, and display of the spectral content of acquired signals (RF waveforms), and to facilitate further analysis and measurements.
What are the typical applications of spectrum analyzer software?
Regardless of the instrument used for the signal data acquisition (signal or spectrum analyzers or oscilloscopes input channels), spectrum analyzers software enables the rf analysis and validation of signals involved in RF design circuits. After transforming the time signal into the frequency domain, the software allows you to represent it in several ways to make accurate measurements. Modern instruments are often used for advanced mmWave applications analysis, including 5G New Radio signal analysis, Wideband radar and pulsed RF signals, Wireless LAN, Bluetooth, Commercial Wireless, EMC/EMI pre-compliance testing and debugging, and many more.
What is the difference between a spectrum analyzer and an oscilloscope?
Oscilloscopes and spectrum analyzers are two of the most important instruments on any bench. While a spectrum analyzer is used to gather frequency information, oscilloscopes are used to measure how signals change over time. The combination of the two instruments allows engineers to characterize a signal.
Is a spectrum analyzer the same as FFT?
Spectrum analyzers are specifically designed for viewing signals in the frequency domain, but because they are not always readily available, oscilloscopes have traditionally used the FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) algorithm to view the frequency spectrum of a signal. However, FFTs are notoriously difficult to use and difficult to view accurately. While our oscilloscopes and spectrum analyzers support standard FFT, they utilize a new, more advanced architecture for spectrum analysis called Spectrum View.
