Agilent Technologies Launches EXA Signal Analyser

Agilent Technologies has introduced its EXA signal analyser, which provides signal analysis to engineers who don’t want to sacrifice speed, accuracy, application coverage or modern connectivity.

EXA integrates a broad range of standards-based measurements with Agilent’s 89600 vector signal analysis (VSA) software. In addition to the use of an open Windows XP Professional operating system, the EXA also claims to provide an advanced signal analysis user interface.

According to the release, Agilent EXA returns a marker peak search result in less than 5 ms, local updates in less than 10 ms, and remote sweep and transfer (via GPIB) in less than 12 ms. Measurement mode switching speeds are typically less than 75 ms. This speed enables a fast and seamless change between WiMAX, W-CDMA, HSDPA/HSUPA, GSM/EDGE, phase noise measurements, and 89600 VSA software.

The EXA signal analyser supports multiple frequency ranges from 9 kHz to 3.6, 7.0, 13.6 and 26.5 GHz, an internal fully calibrated pre-amplifier option up to 3.6 GHz, and standard analysis bandwidths of 10 MHz. This fully scalable functionality is complemented by EXA’s +13 dBm third-order intercept, -146 dBm/Hz displayed average noise level (without pre-amp) and 66 dB W-CDMA ACLR dynamic range, as well as 0.4 dB total absolute amplitude accuracy.
