WiPAN LVSA - LR-WPAN
Signal Analysis and Measurement Tool/Overview |
|
 |
The analysis of
signals is a fundamental problem for many engineers and
scientists. Often a large engineering effort is spent in analyzing
the wireless systems. For engineers working with today’s emerging
ZigBee technology, Seasolve’s signal analyzer software WiPAN LVSA
is an indispensable tool for research, product development and
product manufacturing. Now Perform advanced analysis of transmit
and receive designs with a flexible and cost-effective analysis
solution - WiPAN LVSA. It provides baseband (I/Q) analysis & RF
analysis using the vector signal analyzer (NI PXI RFSA 5660). |

The WiPAN LVSA signal analysis software is a LabVIEW design, to
measure and analyze the RF and Baseband signals in the 2.4 GHz band
using NI PXI RFSA 5660. It’s a WPAN Baseband PHY receiver software
capable of capturing signals, performing symbol synchronization,
frequency synchronization and neutralizing front end non idealities.
The receiver also performs EVM calculation as per standard
specifications.
