up to 1 GHz MHz of RTBW and record/
playback bandwidth; and LGT13xx, which
adds RF up and down conversion to the
LGT12xx to extend the upper frequency
range to 18 GHz."
Chonko, SIGLENT: "recently released a
new firmware revision for our popular
4-channel SDS1X-E oscilloscope series
that enhances the 1 Mpt FFT capabilities of the scope platform to make it feel
more like a spectrum analyzer. One nice
application is measuring the modulation index of an AM signal. The SIGLENT
SSA3X series of spectrum analyzers has
also received some updating with a new
frequency/amplitude search feature in the
marker table to help provide more flexibility, as well as new offset capabilities."
Stinson, Tektronix: "Tektronix recently 1)
Upgraded its flagship RSA7100 real-time
spectrum analyzer with time qualified triggers in response to Mil/Aero customer feedback and improved control and throughput

of IQ data for record and playback applications; 2) Introduced 802.11ay optimized
analysis software for our performance
DPO70000SX Series Oscilloscope with EVM
performance to support development of
next-generation wireless standard products;
3) Expanded the popular RSA500 Series of
advanced, ruggedized portable spectrum
analyzers with 18 GHz and 13 GHz field
portable models."
Sanchez and Nilsson, Rohde & Schwarz:
"We have recently launched two new
product lines dedicated to 5G NR testing. The R&S FSVA3000 signal and spectrum analyzer offers high performance at
a mid-range price and is used to test BS in
the lab. The R&S FSV3000 is the fastest instrument on the market for 5G production
testing. We have also launched new R&S
FSW models, which outperform the competition by offering a wider demodulation
bandwidth and dynamic range combined
with the best phase-noise performance
on the market."

Cherisa Kmetovicz, FieldFox product
marketing at Keysight Technologies: "We
are launching a new line of future-ready
analyzers to address the ever-increasing
demands of 5G, satellite communications,
signal monitoring, and electronic warfare
applications. The new-generation FieldFox
handheld microwave analyzers offer six
combination models (N991xB) and six signal analyzer models (N993xB) covering frequency ranges between 4 and 26.5 GHz."
