Recently introduced by Agilent Technologies are the N9344C and N9343C handheld spectrum analysers (HSA), two field-ready instruments designed for technicians and engineers who install, maintain and troubleshoot RF/microwave systems, monitor the spectrum or manage interference in the field.
The HSAs provide fast and accurate measurement from 1 MHz to 20 GHz and 13,6 GHz, respectively; both are tuneable to 9 kHz. They are well suited for customers in a variety of markets, including aerospace/defence, microwave and satellite communication, wireless communication and broadcasting, spectrum regulation and general-purpose spectrum analysis.
The N9344C and N9343C offer features required in a field-ready instrument, including a rugged and fanless design for operating in tough field environments and automatic LCD brightness and keypad backlight control for clear screen viewing, day or night. A built-in GPS receiver and GPS antenna provide precise location information. In addition, dedicated applications ensure faster, easier spectrum monitoring and interference analysis. For added flexibility, the HSAs can be remotely controlled via a USB/LAN connection.
RF performance figures such as -155 dBm/Hz DANL and minimum sweep time <2 ms ensure first-time measurement accuracy, while a set of powerful one-button measurements (eg, ACP, OBW and channel power) and AM/FM modulation analysis help characterise signal quality. Support for Agilent USB power sensors ensures high-accuracy power measurements. A built-in tracking generator and time-gated sweep further simplify the measurement process.
The instruments also feature a task planner capability that reduces test setup time and allows users to boost their work efficiency by delivering test automation and consistency. Task Planner automates routine measurement tasks with continuous execution of up to 20 different tests. It also automatically captures test results and generates reports. Moreover, task plans can be shared with others via e-mail or USB Flash drive.
