X-Series signal analyzers
The Keysight Technologies, Inc.
N/W6152A provides one-button,
standard-based power and modulation
analysis capabilities to help your
design, evaluation, and manufactur-
ing of digital cable TV modulators,
transmitters, amplifiers, and tuners.
With the optional analog baseband
IQ inputs in the PXA or MXA signal
analyzer, it can also provide the flex-
ibility of measuring signal quality and
modulation accuracy with RF input or
analog IQ input.
The N/W6152A measurement applica-
tion is just one in a common library of
more than 25 advanced measurement
applications in the Keysight X-Series.
The Keysight X-Series is an evolution-
ary approach to signal analysis that
spans instrumentation, measure-
ments, and software.
The X-Series analyzers, with upgrade-
able CPU, memory, disk drives, and
I/O ports, enable you to keep your test
assets current and extend instrument
longevity. Proven algorithms, 100%
code-compatibility, and a common UI
across the X-Series create a consistent
measurement framework for signal
analysis that ensures repeatable
results and measurement integrity
so you can leverage your test system
software through all phases of product
development. In addition to fixed,
perpetual licenses for our X-Series
measurement applications, we also
offer transportable licenses which can
increase the value of your investment
by allowing to you transport the appli-
cation to multiple X-Series analyzers.
Key parameter setup
–– Radio standards: DVB-C (J.83/A),
J.83/B, and J.83/C
–– Symbol rate with standard default
and settable by users
–– Modulation:
16/32/64/128/256QAM for DVB-C
and J.83/C and 64/256/1024QAM
for J.83/B
–– Adaptive equalizer with filter
length and convergence settings
–– Advanced settings: Meas interval,
low SNR enhancement, out-of-
band filter, and more.
–– Input: RF or analog IQ (only avail-
able in the N9030A PXA or N9020A
MXA) for signal quality and modu-
lation accuracy measurements
