Measurements

• Magnitude error, phase error, frequency error, SNR
• EVM, Error vector magnitude, Error vector time,
• IQ time (constellation), offset, quadrature error, gain imbalance
• FSK error, magnitude error, carrier offset frequency, deviation

License

• Transportable license: resides on your PC/instrument, can be transported to another PC/instrument at any time
• Also available as a Floating license: shared on a network server to be accessed by multiple users, one at a time

Other Deatures

• Adaptive equalizer removes linear distortion errors
• Symbol table with detected data bits

The 89600 VSA software is your window into what’s happening inside complex wireless devices. Option AYA offers the general-purpose modulation tools you need to evaluate and characterize the performance of your single carrier, single modulation signals.

• Compare the phase and magnitude of the input signal with an ideal reference signal stream
• Analyze average error over time, symbol-by-symbol or as a single percent
• Identify systematic impairments with the EVM time or spectrum
• Easy-to-use measurement and display tools, such as constellation and eye diagram, and EVM traces
• Use the equalizer to identify and remove linear errors, such as non-flat frequency response, multi-path and group delay distortion, from I-Q modulated signals
• Use the summarized results tables to uncover DSP errors such as miscoded bits or incorrect filter coefficients

This option can be added as a product upgrade.
