Interference Analyzer
R&S Cable Rider ZPH option
R&S ZPH-K15 (order number: 1334.5640.02) option is required to operate the R&S
Cable Rider ZPH in the interference analysis mode.
R&S ZPH-K16 (order number: 1334.5656.02)) option is required to operate the R&S
Cable Rider ZPH in the signal strength mapping mode.
This mode is only available with model .12.
In wireless systems, interference causes low data rates, dropped calls and poor voice
quality, often making it impossible to establish or maintain a connection.
Equipped with firmware option R&S ZPH-K15 and R&S ZPH-K16, you can track down
the source of interferences with your R&S Cable Rider ZPH. These options provide
tools and means to make the search for interferers as comfortable as possible.
To measure interferences, you need a directional antenna like the R&S HL300 (order
number 4097.3005.02), R&S HE300 (order number 4067.5900.02). or R&S HE400
(order number 4104.6000.02).
The interference analyzer provides several measurement modes.
