HP 89400 Opt AYH Digital Video Signal Analyzer

Meeting the needs of both broadcast and cable system designers, HP 89400 vector signal analyzers precisely characterize RF signals in the emerging modulation formats of the digital video industry, including QAM, DVB, and VSB. Off-the-shelf, lab-quality spectrum and waveform measurements allow designers of ATV/HDTV components, equipment and systems to deliver higher-quality video signals faster and for less cost than with custom-built test tools.

[ Features ]

Adaptive equalization now included in Option AYH
Peak-to-average power measurements
Constellation, eye, and error magnitude analysis for QAM, VSB, DVB, and other modulation formats (Option AYH)
Dynamic power measurements, including: peak, average, band-integrated, and adjacent channel
Waveform capture and analysis
Carrier phase noise measurements to -116 dBc/Hz
