Welcome to the HRP UWB Application

The R&S

VSE-K149 is a firmware application that adds functionality to perform High

Rate Pulse Repetition Frequency (HRP) Ultrawideband (UWB) measurements with the
R&S

VSE.

The R&S VSE HRP UWB application features:

●

Analysis of High Rate Pulse Repetition Frequency (HRP) Ultrawideband (UWB)
signals

●

Time of flight (TOF) measurements

●

Spectrum analysis

●

Pulse mask analysis

●

In Depth packet insights

This user manual contains a description of the functionality that the application pro-
vides, including remote control operation.

Functions that are not discussed in this manual are the same as in the spectrum appli-
cation and are described in the R&S

VSE User Manual. The latest version is available

for download at the product homepage.

2.1

Starting the HRP UWB Application

Ultrawideband measurements require a separate application on the R&S

VSE. It is

activated by creating a new measurement channel in HRP UWB mode.

To activate the HRP UWB application

Select the "Add Channel" function in the Sequence tool window.

A dialog box opens that contains all operating modes and applications currently
available in your R&S

VSE.

2. Select the "HRP UWB" item.

The R&S

VSE opens a new measurement channel for the R&S VSE HRP UWB

application.
