89600 Vector Signal Analysis (VSA)

The 89600 VSA (Build Version 28.00), a recent addition to Keysight’s PathWave Vector Signal Analysis suite, was launched in June 2023. This toolset dives deep into advanced demodulation and vector signal analysis, facilitating comprehensive insights into signals and aiding design optimization. Spanning applications from 6G Research and 5G to IoT, Satellite, and Radar, it provides holistic perspectives across frequency, time, and modulation domains, further enriched by optional channel decoding. Notably, the Satellite Communication module is a new feature in this release. What sets our VSA apart is its synergy with PathWave System Design (SystemVue) & PathWave Advanced Design System (ADS). This integration empowers users to leverage the same measurement science across simulation workbenches and lab test benches. This latest release introduces enhancements in areas such as basic VSA, 5G NR, LTE, WLAN, Advanced Radar, and Custom OFDM. Download a trial version at www.keysight.com/find/89600_software.
