Litepoint IQView

802.11a/b/g WLAN Test Solution

The LitePoint IQview 802.11a/b/g/n WLAN Test Solution is a popular test instrument for RF testing of 802.11a/b/g WLAN products, including MIMO and optional Bluetooth + EDR. Network interface cards, access points and embedded components are typically tested using this product.
Features:
•Seamless analysis of DSSS (802.11b/g) and OFDM (802.11a/g) WLAN signals
•Advanced VSA and VSG combined with the capabilities of a power meter and spectrum analyzer in a single instrument
•Operation in both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands
•Baseband I/O facilitates product debugging with LitePoint IQdebug™ Monitor and Control Tool
•High-performance VSA
•Wide bandwidth (+/-33 MHz)
•Capture-once-measure-all operation
•High phase linearity, low phase noise, low noise figure
•Graphical and numerical display of measurement results
•Low noise figure
•Pre-defined 802.11a/b/g transmit test signals
•Impairments can be introduced in real- time to the transmit test signal
•Generation of arbitrary 802.11a/b/g waveforms simplified by optional IQwave WLAN Waveform Generator Software
•Simple control interfaces
•IQsignal Signal Analysis Software Suite facilitates signal analysis, signal generation, and debugging
•LitePoint API (IQapi) supports Visual C/C++ test scripts for use in manufacturing
