| WPAN /ZigBee(IEEE 802.15.4) Signal Analysis Solution |
| |
| Overview |
| |
The WiPAN LVSA 2450 signal analysis solution is designed to capture, measure, and analyze IEEE 802.15.4 compliant signals in the 2450 MHz bands.
The Analyzer yields both raw and detailed measurements with complete MAC information. It allows the user to take advantage of high-efficiency testing and measurement by defining a suitable span, trigger, attenuation, and reference levels. |
| |
| WiPAN LVSA lets the user save the acquired IQ and MAC data |
| |
Analyzer is capable of capturing signals, performing symbol synchronization, frequency synchronization, and neutralizing front-end non idealities. The receiver performs EVM calculation as per the standard’s specification.
In addition, colorful waveforms of data along with markers, zoom, and other GUI options add a third dimension to signal analysis and acquisitions.
WiPAN LVSA seamlessly integrates with the NI PXI RFSA 5660 vector signal analyzer. Its powerful analysis capabilities help scientists, engineers, and academicians to better understand the transmitter characteristics of a ZigBee DUT.
The power of WiPAN LVSA helps save time, money, and speeds up the development process while reducing associated development risks.
For engineers working with today’s emerging ZigBee technology, SeaSolve’s signal analysis solution-WiPAN LVSA is an indispensable tool for research, product development and product manufacturing. |
