The Spectrum Analyzer/Signal Analyzer MS2830A is a with top-class measurement speed at medium-class price. It has best-of-class dynamic range (average noise level [DANL]: –153 dBm, third-order intermodulation distortion [TOI]: +15 dBm) and excellent ±0.3 dB (typ.) total level accuracy using unique level calibration technology.

The MS2830A’s unique Capture & Playback function enables users to capture real-world signals in the field and then recreate them in the lab or on the production line. The MS2830A offers the performance and measurement speed of a high-end test instrument for a mid-range price. Features include:

• Best-of-class dynamic range and total level accuracy minimize measurement uncertainty and maximize production yield
• Wide variety of built-in measurement functions, including channel power, occupied bandwidth, adjacent channel leakage power (ACLR), spurious emissions, and much more
• Low Phase Noise Performance option MS2830A-066 greatly improves phase noise for signals below 3.6 GHz, enabling unmatched performance for the most challenging narrowband adjacent channel leakage power and spurious emissions tests
• Optional wideband vector signal analysis enables frequency vs. time, phase vs. time, spectrogram, and CCDF measurements
• Comprehensive vector modulation analysis of proprietary and standard wireless communications signals, including LTE/LTE-Advanced, W-CDMA, GSM/EDGE, TD-SCDMA, CDMA2000, IEEE 802.11a/b/g/j/n/p, ZigBee, P25 Phase 1 & 2, DMR, NXDN and ITU-R Positive Train Control
• Optional integrated vector signal generator produces continuous wave and I/Q modulated signals to support Tx and Rx testing
• Audio Analyzer option MS2830A-018 enables complete Tx and Rx testing for analog radios, eliminating need for a dedicated instrument
• Noise Figure Measurement Function option MS2830A-017 and Preamplifier option MS2830A-008 enable precise noise figure measurements

The Microwave Spectrum/Signal Analyzers MS2830A-044 and MS2830A-045 offer frequency coverage to 26.5 GHz and 43 GHz for unmatched value in their class. They are compatible with Anritsu’s External Mixer MA27xxC series, enabling millimeter-wave spectrum analysis to 325 GHz. Moreover, with excellent dynamic range, they also support the High Performance Waveguide Mixer options MA2806A and MA2808A for spectrum analysis of millimeter-wave wideband signals.

Like the rest of the MS2830A product family, these instruments offer excellent performance, versatility, and measurement speed. Features include:

• Low Displayed Average Noise Level (DANL) and high Third Order Intercept (TOI) enable measurements requiring wide dynamic range
• Wide variety of built-in measurement functions, including channel power, occupied bandwidth, adjacent channel leakage power (ACLR), spurious emissions, and much more
• Optional wideband vector signal analysis to 26.5 GHz/43 GHz enables frequency vs. time, phase vs. time, spectrogram, and CCDF measurements
• Comprehensive vector modulation analysis of proprietary and standard signals to 26.5 GHz/43 GHz, including LTE/LTE-Advanced, W-CDMA, GSM/EDGE, TD-SCDMA, CDMA2000, 802.11a/b/g/j/n/p, and ZigBee
• Noise Figure Measurement Function option MS2830A-017 and Microwave Preamplifier option MS2830A-068 enable precise noise figure measurements to 26.5 GHz/43 GHz
• Microwave Preselector Bypass option MS2830A-067 enables use of external equipment to analyze wideband signals with bandwidths to 1 GHz
