News - General T&MCost-Effective Millimeter-Wave Signal Analysis Solution10 May 2011 – Agilent Technologies announced its EXA millimeter-wave signal analyzer, covering frequencies up to 44 GHz. With external mixing, it can cover up to 325 GHz. The result is easier, more accurate millimeter-wave measurements. Its portability (16 kg/35 lbs.) makes it ideal for millimeter-wave applications in aerospace/defense and wireless communications backhaul. The need to test and operate systems in the millimeter-wave range continues today. Additionally, the growing demand for higher resolution radar, imaging and sensor systems, along with multi-gigabit wireless and fiber data communications, has fostered increasing interest in high-frequency components and systems. The EXA’s extended capabilities and enhanced performance in millimeter-wave measurements effectively address this need, while offering a lower-cost alternative. “As signal frequencies move into the millimeter-wave range, especially in the aerospace/defense and wireless markets, the ability to make accurate signal and spectrum measurements while also dealing with a range of increasing challenges gets significantly more difficult," said Andy Botka, vice president and general manager of Agilent’s Microwave Communications Division. "As the industry's most cost-effective millimeter-wave signal analysis solution, the EXA is able to help engineers balance the challenges between increasing demands for higher frequency coverage and their ever-tightening budgets.” Like other Agilent X-Series signal analyzers, the EXA is versatile, expandable, offers a broad set of measurement applications, and can be easily upgraded. In addition, its portability versus the PXA signal analyzer (16 kg/35 lbs. versus 22 kg/48 lbs.) makes it ideal for millimeter-wave applications in aerospace/defense and wireless communications backhaul. The EXA’s exceptional sensitivity (< –140 dBm/Hz across the V-band with Agilent’s smart harmonic mixers) enables accurate measurement of spurs and harmonics. Along with its excellent phase-noise performance (-106 dBc/Hz typical at 10 kHz offset, 1 GHz carrier), the EXA is able to meet tighter regulations and test requirements for millimeter-wave device design and performance verification. The EXA is a member of the Agilent X-Series signal analyzers, with frequency coverage from 10 Hz to 44 GHz. The X-Series is an evolutionary approach to signal analysis that spans instruments, measurements and software, including more than 25 industry-leading measurement applications that cover cellular communication, wireless connectivity, digital video and other purposes. The Agilent N9010A EXA signal analyzer is currently available worldwide. www.agilent.comRelated Articles: |
