Highlights

Single-channel, fast-switching vector signal generator

Enable outstanding ultra-fast continuous wave (CW) frequency sweeping, chirping, intra-pulse modulation, frequency hopping, and pulse shaping, all with very low phase noise. A high-performance internal I/Q modulator enables customized modulation waveforms and supports dedicated modulation schemes, including avionics modulation.

  • 400 MHz signal modulation bandwidth with built-in support for common vector modulation schemes
  • Direct support for the controlled injection of additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) into the signal path
  • Outstanding signal purity of modulated signals: lowest phase noise (-145 dBc/Hz at 1 GHz and 20 kHz offset), low spurious, and excellent harmonic rejection
  • Full set of built-in analog modulations like AM, FM, PM, Pulse
  • Ultra-narrow pulse trains (< 5 ns), linear and non-linear pulsed frequency chirps
  • Built-in digital modulation schemes like FSK, PSK, ASK, QAM
  • Ultra-fast frequency hopping and sweeping capability
