Using Isotropic Antennas
The R&S Cable Rider ZPH supports measurements with an isotropic antenna.
Depending on the measuring frequency requirement, you can order the isotropic
antenna in the following list:
●
R&S TSEMF-B1, 30 MHz to 3 GHz (order number: 1074.5719.02)
●
R&S TSEMF-B2, 700MHz to 6 GHz (order number: 1074.5702.02)
●
R&S TSEMF-B3, 9kHz to 200 MHz (order number: 1074.5690.02)
To work with the isotropic antenna, you need a USB adapter (TSEMF-CV, order num-
ber 1158.9250.02) to connect the antennas control cable via the USB interface of the
R&S Cable Rider ZPH.
Test setup
The test setup consists of an R&S Cable Rider ZPH and one of the isotropic antennas.
The necessary cables are provided with the antennas.
1 = Supported isotropic antenna (e.g. R&S TSEMF-B12)
2 = Isotropic RF connector
3 = USB adapter TSEMF-CV connecting to the isotropic antenna control cable
4 = USB port connector
1. Connect the RF cable with the N coaxial connector to the RF input port.
2. Connect the antenna control cable to the USB interface of the R&S Cable Rider
ZPH via the USB adapter TSEMF-CV.
If the R&S Cable Rider ZPH detects the isotropic antenna, the accessory name
"Isotropic Antenna" is displayed in the
title bar
.
