Practical Rohde & Schwarz FSV40 40GHz Signal Spectrum Analyzer with 160 MHz Bandwidth and Touchscreen Operation

The R&S®FSV is an exceptionally fast and versatile signal and spectrum analyzer designed for performance-oriented, cost-conscious users working in the development, production, installation and servicing of RF systems.

In development applications, the R&S®FSV excels due to its outstanding RF properties, a 160 MHz signal analysis bandwidth unmatched in its class, and comprehensive analysis packages for analog modulation methods as well as wireless and wideband communications standards.

The R&S®FSV is five times faster than comparable signal and spectrum analyzers, providing measurement routines optimized for speed and high data throughput - a crucial advantage in production applications.

With its touchscreen for easy operation, compact dimensions, low weight and direct support of power sensors, the R&S®FSV is ideal for installation and service work.

Featuring a signal analysis bandwidth of up to 160 MHz - the largest in its class - the R&S®FSV is a sound investment, ready for future requirements. The instrument has the capability to analyze and demodulate existing and future communications standards.

Fully digital back-end ensures high measurement accuracy and excellent repeatability:

• 28 MHz signal analysis bandwidth with base unit; 40 MHz and 160 MHz optional
• 16-bit A/D converter with 128 MHz sampling frequency for wide dynamic range and excellent display linearity
• 200 Msample signal memory for largest memory depth in its class
• High measurement accuracy and good repeatability with digitally implemented analysis filters

160 MHz signal analysis bandwidth - largest in its class; suitable for WLAN IEEE802.11ac. Wireless communications systems are using ever larger RF bandwidths to boost data rates and transmission capacity. Due to its large signal analysis bandwidth and wealth of software options, the R&S®FSV signal and spectrum analyzer is the only instrument in its class that can handle all existing and most forthcoming wireless communications applications.

Largest I/Q memory depth in its class for recording long signal sequences. The base unit provides an I/Q memory depth of 200 Msample, ensuring data recording over extended time periods even when testing systems with high bandwidths and high sample rates. Conventional signal analyzers have an I/Q memory depth of only a few Msample.

The R&S®FSV is ideally suited for performing wideband modulation measurements during the development and production of chipsets and terminal equipment, as well as in the development, maintenance and installation of infrastructures.

The R&S®FSV signal and spectrum analyzer significantly reduces testing time and expense in production environments. It performs everything from simple measurements to complex modulation analyses quickly, reliably and with low measurement uncertainty.

Fast access to I/Q data with wide bandwidth allows speedy execution of complex evaluation routines in external computers and enables use of the R&S®FSV as a fast digitizer with wide dynamic range for efficient production.
