ESA-E Series Portable Spectrum Analyzers
Features
• third order intercept: +12.5 dB
• ACPR 1st offset dynamic range: –67 dBc
• average displayed noise level: –153 dBm
• EVM modulation analysis
• 2G/3G multi-format RF power measurements
• flexible platform
• frequency coverage to 26.5 GHz
• seven measurement personalities
The Agilent ESA-E series spectrum analyzers with the
modulation analysis measurement personality provide
the flexibility of general-purpose spectrum analysis
combined with the numerical and visual tools to help
you quickly identify and quantify impairments to
digitally modulated signals for all major cellular
standards. Essentially, the ESA-E now provides you
with spectrum and vector measurements in one tool,
thus reducing your need for additional equipment,
preserving measurement accuracy, and minimizing
system development time.
The Agilent ESA-E series also offer quick and easy-to-
use RF power measurements for all major 2G and 3G
standards. The primary applications for the RF power
measurements include handset power-amplifier
research and development and base-station power-
amplifier manufacturing in the 2G and 3G cellular
communications industry. The ESA offers one-button,
format-specific setups including, channel power, occu-
pied bandwidth, multi-offset ACPR, CCDF, harmonic
distortion and burst power measurements.
The ESA-E offers the most expandable, most rugged
platform available, and can tailor a spectrum analyzer
to customers’ specific needs – with the market’s most
scalable price and performance. The ESA-E series
spectrum analyzer with seven measurement personali-
ties (GSM/GPRS, cdmaOne, Bluetooth, modulation
analysis, phase noise, cable fault location and CATV)
represents an excellent-value, mid-performance spec-
trum analyzer with enough vector analysis to provide
the configuration flexibility to ensure customers’ prod-
ucts are brought to market quickly, at the lowest price.

E4991A RF Impedance/Material Analyzer
Features
• basic accuracy ±0.8%
• 3GHz impedance direct read-out
• Windows-styled user interface
• sweep parameters (frequency, ac level, dc bias)
• built-in VBA programming function
• various test fixture for components
• data transfer through the LAN interface
• direct read-out permittivity, permeability [option]
• reliable on-wafer measurement [option]
The new Agilent E4991A RF impedance/material ana-
lyzer offers ultimate impedance measurement perform-
ance and powerful built-in analysis function. It will
provide innovations in R&D of components and circuit
designers who evaluate components in the range of
3 GHz. The E4991A uses an RF-IV technique, as
opposed to the reflection measurement technique,
for more accurate impedance measurement over wide
impedance range. Basic impedance accuracy is ±0.8%.
High Q accuracy enables low-loss component analysis.
The internal synthesizer sweeps frequency from 1 MHz
to 3 GHz with 1 MHz resolution.
