The 89600 VSA Pulse Analysis solution (89601BHQC) provides easy-to-use, time-oriented measurements of Pulsed RF Radio Frequency: A generic term for radio-based technologies, operating between the Low Frequency range (30k Hz) and the Extra High Frequency range (300 GHz). or Microwave signals. It automatically finds pulse edges in time, and then measures parameters such as rise time, fall time, pulse width, PRI (interval), PRF pseudo-random function, duty cycle, peak-to-average ratio and much more. Algorithms determine pulse characteristics according to methods from IEEE Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. A US-based membership organisation that includes engineers, scientists, and students in electronics and related fields. The IEEE developed the 802 series wired and wireless LAN standards. Visit the IEEE at http://www.ieee.org standard 181. Metrics (measured values) are listed in a table for each pulse.

The Pulse Measurement software also:

The Pulse Measurement supports data acquisition from all 89600 VSA supported front-end hardware instruments, within the RF frequency, span, and within memory limitations of PC running the VSA.

Signals being analyzed may come from an external down-converter, in which case the 89600 VSA software’s external down-converter feature can be used to ensure that the User Interface and results have correct frequency labeling.
