Vector Signal Analysis Software for PC

SignalVu-PC Datasheet

SignalVu-PC vector signal analysis software helps you easily validate

wideband designs. Using the signal analysis engine of the

RSA5000/6000 Series and RSA306 USB real-time signal analyzers on your

computer or Windows tablet, you can now move your analysis of

acquisitions off the instrument, and anywhere. Whether your design

validation needs include wideband radar, high data rate satellite links,

wireless LAN or frequency-hopping communications, SignalVu-PC vector

signal analysis software can speed your time-to-insight by showing you the

time-variant behavior of these wideband signals.

Capture with a variety of tools

Capture once - make multiple measurements without recapturing. Using

oscilloscopes, up to four channels can be captured simultaneously; each of

which can be independently analyzed by SignalVu-PC software. Channels

can be RF, I and Q, or differential inputs. You can also apply math

functions to the acquisition before analysis by SignalVu-PC. Acquisition

lengths vary depending upon the selected capture bandwidth: full-

bandwidth acquisitions can range from 1 ms to 25 ms depending upon

model and option selections. Real-time signal analyzer captures range from

up to 7.15 seconds at maximum acquisition bandwidth to several hours at

reduced bandwidths.

Once captured into memory, SignalVu provides detailed analysis in multiple

domains. The spectrogram display (left panel) shows the frequency of an

800 MHz wide LFM pulse changing over time. By selecting the point in time

in the spectrogram during the On time of the pulse, the chirp behavior can

be seen as it sweeps from low to high (lower right panel).

Live Link with the MDO4000B

With the Live Link option (Option CON), SignalVu-PC extends the

functionality of the Mixed Domain Oscilloscope MDO4000B and turns it into

the industry's only 1 GHz Vector Signal Analyzer. SignalVu-PC controls the

MDO4000B RF section, acquires the vector-calibrated I/Q data, and makes

wide-band, time-correlated, multi-domain measurements. You can analyze,

correlate and troubleshoot issues in time, frequency, phase, amplitude, and

even modulation without having to sweep since you can acquire up to

1 GHz of bandwidth in one shot. You can leverage the MDO4000B

triggering capability and extend your debugging work into system-level

troubleshooting of your embedded RF devices.

Analyze

SignalVu-PC vector signal analysis software uses the same analysis

capabilities found in the RSA5000 and RSA6000 Series real-time signal

analyzers.

Time-correlated measurements can be made of frequency, phase,

amplitude, and modulation versus time. This is ideal for signal analysis that

includes frequency hopping, pulse characteristics, modulation switching,

settling time, bandwidth changes, and intermittent signals.

Acquisitions from the RSA306 Spectrum Analyzer and all Tektronix MDO/

MSO/DPO Series oscilloscopes, including the spectrum analyzer in the

Mixed Domain Oscilloscope can be analyzed with SignalVu-PC, adding

deep analysis capabilities to these broadband acquisition systems. Signals

acquired with RSAs and Specmon can also be analyzed with all of the post-

acquisition analysis capabilities of those instruments.

Time-correlated, multi-domain view provides a new level of insight into

design or operational problems not possible with conventional analysis

solutions. Here, the hop patterns of a narrowband signal can be observed

using Spectrogram (lower left) and its hop characteristics can be precisely

measured with Frequency vs Time display (upper left). The time and

frequency responses can be observed in the two views on the right as the

signal hops from one frequency to the next. All of the analysis shown above

is available in the free base version of SignalVu-PC.

Options tailored for your wideband

applications

The basic SignalVu-PC enables spectrum analysis, RF power and

statistics, spectrograms, amplitude, frequency and phase vs. time, and

analog modulation measurements. Options are available for WLAN, settling

time, audio, modulation, pulse, and OFDM analysis.

Wideband satellite and point-to-point microwave links can be directly

observed with SignalVu-PC analysis software. Here, General Purpose

Digital Modulation Analysis (Option SVM) is demodulating a 16QAM

backhaul link running at 312.5 MS/s.

Settling time measurements (Option SVT) are easy and automated. The

user can select measurement bandwidth, tolerance bands, reference

frequency (auto or manual), and establish up to 3 tolerance bands vs. time

for Pass/Fail testing. Settling time may be referenced to external or internal

trigger, and from the last settled frequency or phase. In the illustration,

frequency settling time for a hopped oscillator is measured from an external

trigger point from the device under test.

WLAN transmitter testing

With the WLAN measurement options, you can perform standards-based

transmitter measurements in the time, frequency, and modulation domains.

Option SV23 supports IEEE 802.11a, b, g, j and p signals

Option SV24 supports 802.11n 20 MHz and 40 MHz SISO signals

Option SV25 802.11ac 20/40/80/160 MHz SISO signals

Option SV2C is a bundle of the live link option CON to MDO4000B and

all the WLAN measurement options described above (SV23, SV24 and

SV25)

SignalVu-PC vs. SignalVu SignalVu for oscilloscopes is a separate product made to run directly on Tektronix performance oscilloscopes. SignalVu directly

controls the acquisition settings of the oscilloscopes and automatically transfers data from the oscilloscope acquisition channel to

the SignalVu software.

SignalVu-PC runs on a separate PC. Files from oscilloscopes and signal analyzers can be opened and analyzed. SignalVu-PC

does not communicate with the acquisition instrument or control its acquisition settings.

21 .TIQ files can be created on performance oscilloscopes with SignalVu installed. SignalVu is a separate product from SignalVu-PC.

22 The MDO RF channel saves waveforms in the .TIQ format. MDO oscilloscope waveforms are stored in .ISF format.
