IQ Signal Master MX280005A Vector Signal Analysis Software provides a comprehensive suite of measurements that deliver post processing and analysis of IQ data files captured on Anritsu MS2090A, MS27201A and MS2710XA spectrum analyzers. The software is designed to bring together all the essential tools required to capture IQ data files and then gain critical insights into the nature of the captured signals. Modes within the application support the ability to capture or stream IQ data into the PC memory, perform modulation quality measurements and playback IQ data with high frequency and time resolution.
A file conversion mode allows IQ data captured on the supported analyzers to be converted to the format required for playback using an Anritsu MG3710E Vector Signal Generator further enhancing the overall capability.
The software is designed for national RF spectrum regulators, security agencies and defense electronics companies who need to gain critical insight into RF signals that have been captured in the field. It is also suitable for organizations that need to monitor and protect RF spectrum from unlicensed operators or unintended sources of interference.
The MX280005A software requires a PC node-locked license or a USB dongle for use of the IQ Player and IQ Converter applications. The spectrum analyzer used to capture signals must have Option 124 or 126, and Option 128 installed.
