Signal Analyzer Salient Features.pdf

This document is a salient features specification for the 56 CS Spectrum Management Signal Analyzer, a portable signal detection and analysis system.

The analyzer operates across a frequency range of 8 kHz to 20 GHz with a minimum analysis bandwidth of 40 MHz and real-time bandwidth of 40 MHz. Key performance specifications include a Third-Order Intercept (TOI) of 30 dBm at 1 MHz and above, phase noise of -90 dBc at 1 GHz with a 10 kHz offset, spurious-free dynamic range of -60 dBc over 40 MHz bandwidth, and amplitude accuracy of ±3 dBm. The system runs Windows 11 Operating System and includes perpetual software licensing with integration capabilities for the Standard Frequency Assignment Format (SFAF). Core functional capabilities encompass real-time detection and analysis, active monitoring, signal trace and recording, harmonic and noise analysis, spectrum measurement, interference analysis, and mapping/geotagging functionality. The equipment is portable and battery-powered, backed by a 4-year warranty. These specifications define the technical and operational requirements for a spectrum management tool suitable for federal spectrum monitoring and interference detection operations.
