MATLAB is a well known software environment and programming language with over 1,000,000 users. MATLAB enables you to configure, control, and acquire data from Keysight X-Series signal analyzers and PSA spectrum analyzers. Once data is in MATLAB, you can analyze and visualize that data using interactive tools and command-line functions for data analysis tasks such as signal processing, statistical analysis, digital filtering, curve fitting, and nonlinear optimization. MATLAB is also used for developing Test & Measurement applications.

Software requirements:
MATLAB
MATLAB Instrument Control Toolbox

Note: This MATLAB page provides resources for using MATLAB with X-Series signal analyzers and PSA spectrum analyzers. You have a royalty-free right to use, modify, reproduce and distribute the MATLAB instrument driver and sample application files in any way you find useful. The MATLAB Custom Driver is a supported driver for those individuals who purchase the N6171A option. Keysight Technologies has no warranty, obligations or liability for any modified versions of these drivers or examples.
