RFID development software for realtime spectrum analysers

30 November 2005 Test & Measurement

Tektronix has introduced a new RFID software measurement suite for its WCA200A, RSA3300A and RSA3408A realtime spectrum analysers, which adds new measurement and troubleshooting features specifically designed to help the RFID engineer.

Like all modern digital RF, RFID is becoming increasingly sophisticated and complex, employing time-varying RF signals, such as frequency-hopping spread spectrum and transmission timing controls. This trend requires more sophisticated test equipment and intelligent software applications to help engineers visualise the correlation between the time, frequency, modulation, and data domains.

To assist engineers with this challenge, the new RFID measurement suite provides support for RFID standard ISO18000 part 4 (mode 1) and part 6 (Type A, B and C) as well as the Electronic Product Code Generation 2 (EPC Gen2). These are offered as options for the WCA200A, RSA3300A and RSA3408A realtime spectrum analysers.
