Tektronix RSA2200A and RSA3300A Series
Real-time Spectrum Analyzers capture
many signals not viewable on swept
spectrum analyzers by seamlessly capturing
and storing a span of RF frequencies all at
one time.
*1
Once a signal is captured, it
can be viewed simultaneously and ana-
lyzed in time-correlated frequency, time
and modulation domains. RSA Series instru-
ments include not only Real-time Spectrum
Analyzer fast-signal capture, internal memory
and modulation analysis but also functionality
and operation of a swept spectrum analyzer
for looking at very wide spans, all in an
integrated, transportable package.

See Tektronix Real-time Spectrum Analysis Technical Brief
(lit # 37W-17252-0) for an explanation of how RTSA works
and its unique capabilities.
Time-correlated multi-domain view provides
a new level of insight about design or
operational problems and possible
solutions. This example includes frequency,
time, and modulation domain views of an
AM-modulated pulsed signal with pulse-
to-pulse phase variation measured in the
modulation domain.
RSA Series Spectrogram uniquely shows
time-varying signal behavior in frequency
change/stability, spectrum occupancy,
pulsed signal timing, power change and
more! The sample above shows the fre-
quency settling characteristic of a
transmitting device.
