Real-time Spectrum Analyzer

Keysight’s real-time spectrum analyzer (RTSA) is available for purchase or as an upgrade to an existing PXA or MXA signal analyzer. Adding real-time spectrum analysis to the PXA or MXA lets the user see, capture and understand the most elusive signals—known or unknown.

The unit maximizes the probability of intercepting a signal with the widest analysis bandwidth and dynamic range. Culprit signals can identified and recorded with frequency-mask trigger and with time-qualified triggers. The user can sweep to the highest frequency range using stitched density and external mixing. Traditional measurements, such as phase noise and noise figure, are easily accessed. The 89600 VSA software thoroughly characterizes complex signals. The RTSA records and plays back spectrum density data over time for detecting and analyzing signal anomalies. www.keysight.com
