Quick links

Features & benefits

ITU-compliant measurements

In line with the recommendations from the ITU-R

The performance of R&S®EB500 is in line with all respective recommendations from the ITU-R. The optional R&S®EB500-IM option allows for ITU-compliant measurements of signal parameters such as bandwidth, center frequency and modulation depth.
 

Polychrome spectrum

Distinguish superimposed, pulsed signals

In polychrome spectrum measurement mode, R&S®EB500 displays the time behavior (frequency of occurrence) of pulsed signals using color coding (for all realtime bandwidths). This helps to distinguish superimposed, pulsed signals.
 

Three additional DDC

3 + 1 receivers in one instrument

R&S®EB500 allows for demodulation and parallel output of audio or I/Q data of up to four signals inside the realtime bandwidth by means of the R&S®EB500-DDC digital downconverter option.
 

Direction finding  

Upgradable to AOA direction finding

R&S®EB500 can be upgraded to automatic angle-of-arrival (AOA) based direction finding (DF) by means of the R&S®EB500-DF direction-finding upgrade kit in combination with R&S®ADDx single-channel DF antennas.
 

Support of TDOA

Radiolocation by means of TDOA

R&S®EB500 allows for radiolocation by means of the time difference on arrival (TDOA) method. The optional R&S®EB5-EGT external GPS module provides for high-accuracy time stamps and GPS synchronization.
