This video tackles how to use the RIGOL spectrum analyzer to measure an antenna. The spectrum analyzer has a VB1020 option and utility kit that helps with antenna design and characterization. It ...

A spectrum analyzer with a tracking generator can be a useful piece of test gear. This application note covers making a simple loss measurement on a coaxial cable with BNC connectors. Two N-type to ...

For a long time, spectrum analyzers and scanning receivers have been widely used in EMI laboratories. The technical capabilities of these instruments are similar to those of a classic stepped EMI ...

Using a spectrum analyzer to measure noise signals requires several additional factors, such as sensitivity or how well the instrument can measure small signals. The analyzer’s noise floor specifies ...

The analysis of electrical signals, otherwise known as signal analysis, is a fundamental challenge for virtually all electronic design engineers and scientists. While it provides valuable insight into ...

[Debraj] wrote to us describing a project he recently completed – a simple, compact spectrum analyzer using a 16-bit dsPIC microcontroller. The analyzer is fed an analog signal, which is passed ...
