Spectrum Analyzer 9kHz-6GHz, -141dBm - +20dBm, with tracking generator

The R&S FSC is a compact, cost-efficient spectrum analyzer.

It covers a wide range of applications from simple development tasks to production, or can be used for training RF professionals and it is ideal for applications in service or maintenance.

The R&S FSC features a wealth of functions for simplifying and speeding up the development and testing of RF products. Its RF characteristics and its high measurement accuracy help to ensure reliable and reproducible measurement results.

An optional preamplifier that is available for all models increases sensitivity for measuring weak signals.

Owing to its compact design, the R&S FSC takes up only a minimum of space on a lab bench. When installed in a rack, two R&S FSC or one R&S FSC and one R&S SMC signal generator situated next to each other fit into the 19” space.

Measurement functions:

Noise marker for determining the noise power referenced to 1 Hz measurement bandwidth

Frequency counter with 0.1 Hz resolution

Limit line monitoring (pass/fail function) for indicating whether the DUT complies with defined limits

Modulation depth measurement of AM-modulated signals

Measurement of harmonics and total harmonic distortion

AM/FM audio demodulator (audio via built-in loudspeaker or via headphones)

Scalar transmission measurement for fast and simple determination of the transmission characteristics of DUTs such as cables, filters or amplifiers (available for the R&S FSC models .13 and .16 with tracking generator)

Location of EMC problems on printed boards using the R&S HZ-15 near-field probe set for emission measurements from 30 MHz to 3 GHz

Field-strength measurements taking into account the specific antenna factors of the connected antenna, the field strength being displayed directly in dBμV/m

Power measurement on pulsed signals in the time domain with predefined settings for the GSM and EDGE mobile radio standards

Channel power measurement in a definable transmission channel with predefined settings for 3GPP WCDMA, cdmaOne, CDMA2000 and LTE mobile communications standards

Measurement of occupied bandwidth (OBW)

Adjacent channel power, absolute or referenced to the TX carrier for up to

12 channels and 12 adjacent channels

Gated sweep for displaying the modulation spectrum of burst signals such as GSM or WLAN

Measurement of spurious emissions

Easy operation
DocumentatioN and remote control

Data transfer between the R&S FSC and a PC via USB/LAN
