Description
Use Case
NI-RFmx
Provides a single-handle
instrument driver with built-in
measurements.
Use NI-RFmx SpecAn to perform
spectral measurements.
Use NI-RFmx Demod to perform
modulation quality measurements,
such as EVM.
Use NI-RFmx cellular personalities to
perform physical layer measurement
analysis on supported cellular signals.
NI-RFSA
instrument
driver
The NI-RFSA APIs each provide a
fixed API for interacting with your
PXIe-5665 device.
NI-RFSA provides standard IVI-
based functionality needed for
most vector signal analyzer
applications.
Use NI-RFSA to create custom
measurements or applications that
require I/Q data.
Use NI-RFSA along with the
NI Modulation Toolkit to analyze
modulated signals to test receivers.
NI-RFSA SFP Controls, analyzes, and presents
data similar to stand-alone RF
vector signal analyzers. The NI-
RFSA SFP operates on the PC, so
it provides processing, storage, and
display capabilities.
Use the NI-RFSA SFP to interactively
acquire data.
