Embedded Local Oscillator Capability
S93084B

The S93084B tunes the network analyzer’s receivers to the output frequency of the converter under test without having to access internal LOs or a common reference signals. For converters with embedded LOs, this enables measurements of match-corrected conversion loss/gain and absolute group delay (requires S93082B and S93083B), gain compression versus frequency (requires S93086B), intermodulation distortion (requires S93087B), and noise figure (requires S93029B).

Antenna, Wideband Discone
EM-6115 | 10 KHz – 2 GHz
-
The EM-6115 is a broad band collinear array allowing very wide Omni-Directional frequency coverage in a single package. Below approximately 100 MHz, the EM-6115 acts as an active vertical rod which offers 10 to 12 dB Greater unsaturated instantaneous dynamic range than competitive antennas (overload field strength: 2 V/meter) which greatly reduces intermodulation generated signals in a typical read world RF environment. In the congested spectrum above 100 MHz the antenna is passive and contributes no intermodulation products so the overload point is determined solely by the receiving instrument. This immunity to overload can often make the difference between useful signal output and an indecipherable jumble of spurious products and is accomplished without compromising sensitivity. The antenna collapses for convenient storage and transport.

PIM Testing
-
Rosenberger Hochfrequenztechnik GmbH & Co. KG
Passive Intermodulation (PIM) is a non-linear response of two or more signals of different frequencies mixing together in a passive device, e.g., antenna, cable, con- nector or splitter. Today, PIM has become a very serious, and challenging issue for mobile operators, equipment vendors, and component manufacturers due to frequency planning in modern communication networks, the usage of high-power transmitters and the usage of more sensitive receivers in base stations. If a PIM with sufficient magnitude generated from a transmitter falls within an adjacent receiver channel, it causes serious interfe- rences to the base station receiver and will significantly degrade the network quality of service.

PIM Analyzers
-
A form of intermodulation distortion that occurs in components normally thought of as linear, such as cables, connectors and antennas. However, when subject to the high RF powers found in cellular systems, these devices can generate intermodulation signals at –80 dBm or higher.
