The I/Q stands for In-Phase/Quadrature-Phase.
In the 45.05 MHz IF stage, I/Q output is available as an optional feature. The I/Q digital signal consists of
two (2) different digital signals with phases shifted 90 degrees. The I/Q output is provided through a
continuously is ochronous USB 2.0 stand ard interface. By using the I/Q digital output, the streamed data
can be stored on a PC hard disk for future signal analysis.
The I/Q digital output of the AR5001D has a wide dynamic range (without AGC processing) floating point
da ta format.
FFT (Fast Fourier Transform)
The AR5001D utilizes FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) technology for high speed spectrum scanning.
FFT enables refreshment of the spectrum display more than 10 times per second for a 10 MHz span
(at 500 Hz RBW). The AR5001D scans 10 MHz of bandwidth.
LAN (Local Area Network) connection
When a n optional (external) LAN interface is connected, the AR5001D can be remotely controlled
through the internet.
Triple channel reception
Any frequency below 25 MHz can be received independently, separate from a frequency above
25 MHz. The refore, two (2) separate frequencies can be received simultaneously. Furthermore, any
two (2) frequencies above 25 MHz (within a range of +/- 5 MHz from the receive frequency) can a lso
be selected and received simultaneously. Therefore, up to three (3) frequencies can be received at
the same time.
