Test and Diagnosis of the Transmitter and Receiver

The 4041 spectrum analyzer has a number of measurement function modes including the Spectrum Analyzer,

Interference Analyzer, AM/FM/PM analyzer, USB Power meter, and Channel scanner, and it also has a number of

measurement functions including the channel power, occupied bandwidth, adjacent channel power,

carrier-to-noise ratio, field strength, and emission mask; therefore, it can provide the comprehensive Spectrum

Analyzer and diagnosis service for the test of the transmitter and receiver.
