SignalVu-PC Vector Signal Analysis SoftwareApplicationsWideband radar and pulsed RF signalsFrequency agile communicationsBroadband satellite and microwave backhaul linksWireless LAN, Bluetooth, Commercial WirelessLand Mobile Radio (LMR), APCO P25EducationLong Term Evolution (LTE), CellularEMC/EMI pre-compliance and troubleshootingCapture with a variety of toolsCapture once - make multiple measurements without recapturing. Usingperformance oscilloscopes (MSO/DPO70000/SX/DX Series), up to fourchannels can be captured simultaneously; each of which can beindependently analyzed by SignalVu-PC software. Channels can be RF, Iand Q, or differential inputs. You can also apply math functions to theacquisition before analysis by SignalVu-PC. Acquisition lengths varydepending upon the selected capture bandwidth: full-bandwidthacquisitions can range from 1 ms to 25 ms depending upon model andoption selections. Real-time signal analyzer captures range from up to7.15 seconds at maximum acquisition bandwidth to several hours atreduced bandwidths.Connect with MSO5/6 or MDO4000 SeriesOscilloscopesWhen the Connect (CON-SVPC) option is installed, SignalVu-PC extendsthe functionality of either the MO4000B/C or 5/6 Series MSO (withhardware option SV-RFVT). The combination of hardware and softwaretransforms the 6 Series MSO into a wide-band vector signal analyzer (VSA)with up to 2 GHz capture bandwidth on up to 4 independent user-selectablechannels; or up to 500 MHz and 8 channels using a 5 Series MSO; or up to1 GHz on a single channel using the MDO4000B/C Oscilloscope.SignalVU-PC controls the MSO or MDO RF front-end, acquires the vectorcalibrated I/Q data, and makes wide-band, time-correlated, multi-domainmeasurements. You can analyze, correlate and troubleshoot issues in time,frequency, phase, amplitude, and even modulation.You can leverage the MSO or MDO triggering capability and extend yourdebugging work into system-level troubleshooting of your embedded RFdevices.AnalyzeSignalVu-PC vector signal analysis software uses the same analysiscapabilities found in the RSA5000 and RSA6000 Series real-time signalanalyzers.Time-correlated measurements can be made of frequency, phase,amplitude, and modulation versus time. This is ideal for signal analysis thatincludes frequency hopping, pulse characteristics, modulation switching,settling time, bandwidth changes, and intermittent signals.Acquisitions from the USB Spectrum Analyzers and all Tektronix MDO/MSO/DPO Series oscilloscopes, including the spectrum analyzer in theMixed Domain Oscilloscope can be analyzed with SignalVu-PC, addingdeep analysis capabilities to these broadband acquisition systems.Once captured into memory, SignalVu-PC provides detailed analysis inmultiple domains. The spectrogram display (bottom left panel) shows thefrequency of an LFM pulse changing over time. By selecting the point intime in the spectrogram during the On time of the pulse, the chirp behaviorcan be seen as it sweeps from low to high (upper right panel).2 www.tek.com

DatasheetTime-correlated, multi-domain view provides a new level of insight intodesign or operational problems not possible with conventional analysissolutions. Here, the hop patterns of a narrowband signal can be observedusing Spectrogram (upper right) and its hop characteristics can be preciselymeasured with Frequency vs Time display (bottom left). The time andfrequency responses can be observed in the two views right as the signalhops from one frequency to the next. All of the analysis shown above isavailable in the free base version of SignalVu-PC.Wideband satellite and point-to-point microwave links can be directlyobserved with SignalVu-PC analysis software. Here, general purposeDigital Modulation Analysis (SVM) is demodulating a 16QAM backhaul linkrunning at 312.5 MS/s.Optional applications tailored for your RFapplicationsThe base SignalVu-PC version ships free and enables real-time spectrumanalysis, RF power and statistics, spectrograms, amplitude, frequency andphase vs. time, and analog modulation measurements. Field-upgradeablesoftware options may be added, including pulse and OFDM analysis,general purpose modulation analysis, settling time, automated phase noisemeasurements, EMI pre-compliance, commercial standard analysis(WLAN, Bluetooth, LTE), playback of recorded files, and more.Settling time measurements (SVT) are easy and automated. The user canselect measurement bandwidth, tolerance bands, reference frequency(auto or manual), and establish up to 3 tolerance bands vs. time for Pass/Fail testing. Settling time may be referenced to external or internal trigger,and from the last settled frequency or phase. In the illustration, frequencysettling time for a hopped oscillator is measured from an external triggerpoint from the device under test.www.tek.com 3

However, TektronixDPO70000SX Series oscilloscope with option SV30 installed can be usedfor full online 60 GHz measurements and analysis using SignalVu. Formore details, refer to SignalVu-PC vs. SignalVu section of this document.Cell IDChannel PowerOccupied BandwidthAdjacent Channel Leakage Ratio (ACLR)Spectrum Emission Mask (SEM)Transmitter Off Power for TDDReference Signal PowerThere are four presets to accelerate pre-compliance testing and determinethe Cell ID. These presets are defined as Cell ID, ACLR, SEM, ChannelPower and TDD Toff Power. The measurements follow the definition in3GPP TS Version 12.5 and support all base station categories, includingpicocells and femtocells. Pass/Fail information is reported and all channelbandwidths are supported.The Cell ID preset displays the Primary Synchronization Signal (PSS) andthe Secondary Synchronization Signal (SSS) in a Constellation diagram. Italso provides Frequency Error and Reference Signal (RS) Power.The ACLR preset measures the E-UTRA and the UTRA adjacent channels,with different chip rates for UTRA. ACLR also supports Noise Correctionbased on the noise measured when there is no input. Both ACLR and SEMwill operate in swept mode (default) or in faster single acquisition if theinstrument has enough acquisition bandwidth.SV30 installed on an oscilloscope provides significant margin in EVMperformance compared to what is required by the standard. Both ControlPHY (802.11ad) and Single Carrier PHY (802.11ad and 802.11ay) aresupported and provides analysis of 802.11ay 2.16 GHz packets or4.23 GHz adjacent 2-channel bonded packets.Testing and verification can be done on IF and RF setups. RF power,Received Power Indicator (RCPI), Frequency error (Max, Average, Std.Deviation), DC Offset, IQ DC origin offset, IQ Gain and Phase imbalance,Signal Quality, and estimated SNR measurements are reported in theSummary display. Pass/Fail results are reported using customizable limitsand the presets make the test set-up push-button.For further insight into the signal, color coding is available in the userinterface, allowing you to visualize the EVM spread across the analyzedpacket with color codes differentiating regions. You can also view thedemodulated symbols in tabular form with different color codes and with anoption to traverse to the start of each region for easier navigation.WiGig IEEE802.11ad/ay transmitter testing (offline analysis)Modulation formatsFast validation of LTE base station transmitter with push button preset, and pass/failinformation802.11ad: MCS0-12.6802.11ay: MCS1-21802.11ad/ay Single carrier: π/2 BPSK,π/2 QPSK, π/2 16QAM, π/2 64QAM802.11ad Control PHY: π/2 DBPSKwww.tek.com 7

Packetinformation includes the Packet type,Preamble, Synchronization Word orAccess Code, Packet Header, Payloadlength, and CRC details.Constellation, EVM vs Time, SymbolTable, SummarySignal surveyThe signal classification application (SV54) enables expert systemsguidance to aid the user in classifying signals. It provides graphical toolsthat allow you to quickly create a spectral region of interest, enabling you toclassify and sort signals efficiently. The spectral profile mask, when overlaidon top of a trace, provides signal shape guidance, while frequency,bandwidth, channel number, and location are displayed allowing for quickchecks. WLAN, GSM, W-CDMA, CDMA, Bluetooth standard and enhanceddata rate, LTE FDD and TDD, and ATSC signals can be quickly and simplyclassified. Databases can be imported from your H500/RSA2500 signaldatabase library for easy transition to the new software base.Playback of recorded filesWith SV56, playback of recorded files from one of the USB spectrumanalyzers is possible. Playback of recorded signals can reduce hours ofwatching and waiting for a spectral violation to minutes at your deskreviewing recorded data. Recording length is limited only by storage mediasize and recording is a basic feature included in SignalVu-PC. SignalVu-PCSV56 Playback allows for complete analysis by all SignalVu-PCmeasurements, including DPX Spectrogram. Minimum signal durationspecifications are maintained during playback. AM/FM audio demodulationcan be performed. Variable span, resolution bandwidth, analysis length,and bandwidth are all available. Frequency mask testing can be performedon recorded signals up to 40 MHz in span, with actions on mask violationincluding beep, stop, save trace, save picture, and save data. Portions ofthe playback can be selected and looped for repeat examination of signalsof interest. Playback can be gap-free, or time gaps can be inserted toreduce review time. A Live Rate playback ensures fidelity of AM/FMdemodulation and provides a 1:1 playback vs. actual time. Clock time of therecording is displayed in the spectrogram markers for correlation to realworld events. In the illustration below, the FM band is being replayed, witha mask applied to detect spectral violations, simultaneous with listening tothe FM signal at the center frequency of 92.3 MHz.Above is a typical signal survey. This survey is of a portion of the TV broadcast band,and 7 regions have been declared as either Permitted, Unknown, or Unauthorized, asindicated by the color bars for each region.In this illustration, a single region has been selected. Since we have declared this to bean ATSC video signal, the spectrum mask for the ATSC signal is shown overlaid in theregion. The signal is a close match to the spectrum mask, including the vestigial carrierat the lower side of the signal, characteristic of ATSC broadcasts.SignalVu-PC with mapping can be used to manually indicate the azimuth ofa measurement made in the field, greatly aiding in triangulation efforts. Theaddition of a smart antenna able to report its direction to SignalVu-PCautomates this process. Automatically plotting the azimuth/bearing of ameasurement during interference hunting can greatly speed the time spentsearching for the source of interference. Tektronix offers the Alaris DFA0047 handheld direction finding antenna with frequency coverage from20 MHz -8.5 GHz (optional 9 kHz-20 MHz) as part of a completeinterference hunting solution. All SignalVu-PC data streams include timestamp information for effective data logging and coherent signal analysisapplications. Full specifications for the DF-A0047 antenna are available in aseparate antenna datasheet available on www.Tektronix.com.8 www.tek.com

DatasheetAdvanced Pulse analysisThe Advanced Pulse Analysis package (SVP) provides 31 individualmeasurements to automatically characterize long pulse trains. An 850 MHzwide LFM chirp centered at 3.85 GHz is seen here with measurements forpulses 7 through 14 (top right). The shape of the pulse can be seen in theAmplitude vs. Time plot shown in the upper left. Detailed views of pulse#8's frequency deviation and parabolic phase trajectory are shown in thelower two views.Automated phase noise and jittermeasurementsPhase noise degrades the ability to process Doppler information in radarsystems and degrades error vector magnitude in digitally modulationcommunication systems. Automated phase noise and jitter measurementswith a spectrum analyzer (PHAS) may reduce the cost of yourmeasurements by reducing the need for a dedicated phase noise analyzer.Shown below, the phase noise of a 1 GHz carrier is measured at -133 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset. Single-sideband phase noise is displayed in dBc/Hzversus offset frequencies from carrier, shown in trace or tabular form: one Peak trace (in blue) and one average trace (in yellow). Trace smoothingand averaging is supported.The RSA7100B's intrinsic phase noise of -134 dBc/Hz, at this frequencyand across its operating range, provides ample measurement margin for avast majority of applications.Applications include testing VCO phase noise, oscillator phase noise, clocksource jitter, signal generator phase noise, and more. The Tektronix phasenoise / jitter application, when combined with DPX signal processing,provides a powerful solution for designing and troubleshooting momentarilyunstable signal sources.Cumulative statistics provides timestamps for Min, Max values as well as Peak to Peak,Average and Standard deviation over multiple acquisitions, further extending theanalysis. Histogram shows you outliers on the right and left.The phase noise application performs automated carrier tracking,averaging, and dynamic measurement bandwidth adjustment, providing theaccuracy and speed of measurement needed at all carrier offsets - rangingfrom 10 Hz to 1 GHz. Results are available in log-frequency trace or tabularform with pass/fail limits on-screen or via programmatic control. Integrationlimits are programmable for RMS phase noise, jitter, and residual FM. Thelow instrument phase noise of the RSA7100B together with thismeasurement application allows for high-performance phase noisemeasurements at frequencies up to 26.5 GHz.Pulse-Ogram displays a waterfall of multiple segmented captures, with correlatedamplitude vs time and spectrum of each pulse.
