scanning
Multiple R&S®EB500 devices can be combined with a fast
and powerful search receiver (e.g. the R&S®ESMD) and
operated as a system. The R&S®EB500 devices demodu­
late signals and produce audio or I/Q data streams, while
the R&S®ESMD quickly searches for other signals with an
extremely high level of sensitivity. A separate R&S®EB500
is required for each signal that is to be processed in
parallel.
The handover of a signal from the R&S®ESMD to an
R&S®EB500 is carried out from the user workstation run­
ning with R&S®RAMON system software. The major
advantage of this system configuration is that the fast
signal search across a wide frequency scenario and the
narrowband production of multiple audio or I/Q data
streams occur simultaneously. This allows the user to
achieve optimum results in a minimum of time.
Handoff receiver in
networked systems
Multiple R&S®EB500 devices can be operated together with
an R&S®ESMD and operated as a system.
