Aeroflex Ltd., Stevenage, U.K., has added the Generic Measurement Suite to its PXI 3000 Series of RF modular testing instruments to let the systems perform a variety of generic analyses of analog and digital modulated signals. The initial release supports the analysis of broadcast FM signals and phase-shift keying (PSK) modulation types including BPSK, QPSK, and OQPSK such as that used by ZigBee devices. The generic tool kit supports modulation accuracy, adjacent channel power, occupied bandwidth, and spectrum mask measurements for continuous or burst signals. New capabilities include broadcast FM deviation accuracy measurements for mono or stereo signals and associated analysis of demodulated audio for SNR, SINAD, THD, and stereo isolation measurements.
