Handheld RF interference hunting tool
14 June 2006
Test & Measurement
The RF Scout Interference Hunter from Tektronix provides all of the tools necessary to hunt for RF interference and check signal quality in one rugged, handheld platform. This enables network performance planning and optimisation teams to explore, discover, analyse and document interference or other signal quality problems in a field-ready tool, says the company.
The trend toward higher speed wireless data services is driving the need for cleaner RF signals, since high data rates depend on clean signals. The RF Scout enables the identification and troubleshooting of those issues that have a direct impact on the RF network performance, whether they be associated to the network or caused by other radio systems co-existing in the same geographic area.
The RF Scout provides spectrum analysis, interference analysis and logging tools, coverage tools, and iMap in a handheld form factor. Its Windows-based user interface simplifies operation and the process of moving data and maps on and off the instrument.
