Step 1. Add a preamplier
Preamplier, 3.0 GHz N9320B-PA3 Preamplier improves the noise oor for low-level signal detection
Step 2. Add modulation analysis capability
AM and FM demodulation metrics N9320B-AMA Provides modulation metrics of an AM or FM signal: Carrier power,
modulation rate, AM depth, frequency deviation, SINAD1, and carrier
frequency offset
ASK and FSK demodulation metrics N9320B-DMA Provides modulation metrics of an ASK or FSK signal: Carrier power,
ASK error, depth, and index, FSK deviation, FSK error, magnitude error,
and carrier frequency offset
1. Signal-to-noise and distortion ratio
Step 3. Add scalar stimulus-response measurement capability
Tracking generator, 100 kHz to 3.0 GHz N9320B-TG3 A cost-effective method to measure transmission characters of RF
devices. An external bridge or a directional coupler needs to be added to
implement reection measurements
Step 4. Add optional features
