Demo guide overview

Over-the-air demo

The Tektronix RSA300 Series, RSA500A Series, and RSA600A Series USB spectrum analyzers can perform off-air
applications. This demo shows how to use the analyzer for these applications. Using the whip antenna provided with
the analyzer demonstration kit, you can demodulate and listen to the signals from the local FM broadcasting station,
see the realtime spectrum of the signals in the ISM band created by your smart phone, and use the analyzer in
interference-hunting.

EMI spurious search

From the first wireless transmissions, electromagnetic interference (EMI) has been a concern for design engineers.
General-purpose spectrum analyzers that contain appropriate filters and detectors are often employed in diagnostics
and pre-compliance, as they are fast measurement tools that often are already used in the design process and do not
require additional capital expense.
