LITEPOINT IQVIEQ

WLAN TEST SET

Unit in great condition, tested good

The LitePoint IQview, an all-in-one test instrument, is used to develop and test 802.11a/b/g/n WLAN products, such as network interface cards, access points and embedded components.  With the appropriate software option, IQview can also be used to test Bluetooth-equipped devices.

The LitePoint IQview integrates a vector signal analyzer (VSA) for analyzing device transmitted signals, and a vector signal generator (VSG) for injecting precisely structured signals into a device’s receiver. The tester’s VSA, for example, replaces traditional spectrum analyzers and power meters, enabling you to analyze a device’s transmitter output and perform true error vector magnitude (EVM) measurements. The tester’s VSG replaces a discrete signal generator and allows you to add impairments to signals to fully test whether the design meets the standard’s specifications.

The IQview test system’s VSA capability replaces traditional spectrum analyzers and power meters, enabling the user to analyze a device under test’s transmitter output and perform true error vector magnitude (EVM) measurements. Designed to receive large input signals without distortion, the IQview test system employs a wide-bandwidth Capture-Once Measure-All approach so that the device under test’s transmit signal is sampled and stored in a single measurement for subsequent analysis of all desired parameters resulting in reduced test times.

Similarly, the IQview test system’s VSG capability replaces traditional golden units with a test signal source of much higher quality, allowing detailed analysis of the receiver performance of the device under test. The IQview test system is designed to output high-quality test signals over the full expected operating range of a WLAN receiver.

The IQview test system supports testing in both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands utilized worldwide for 802.11a/b/g/n products. Inputs and outputs at both RF and baseband are provided, enabling detailed testing of all aspects of a WLAN product’s analog design.
