The R&S®ESMD wideband monitoring receiver was especially designed for signal search, radiomonitoring, radio detection and spectrum monitoring. It performs ITU-compliant measurements and meets public safety and security requirements. The receiver is ideal for both stationary and mobile/vehicular applications because it can be operated locally from the front panel or remotely controlled via LAN. Key facts High-performance spectrum monitoring from 8 kHz to 26.5 GHz (with options) Accurate AoA direction finding from 300 kHz to 8.5 GHz (with options) Reliable detection of weak signals in dense spectrum environments Cutting-edge signal measurements in the frequency and time domain (option) Performance and device testing in line with ITU recommendations Superior RF performance in dense spectrum environments The R&S®ESMD makes an excellent trade-off between linearity and sensitivity and can reliably detect weak signals among strong unwanted ones in crowded spectra. Preselection filtering including filter banks and tunable bandpass filters over the entire frequency range protect against intermodulation from strong out-of-band signals. ITU-compliant measurements R&S®ESMD performance is in line with all relevant ITU-R recommendations. The optional R&S®ESMD-IM option allows for ITU-compliant measurements of signal parameters such as bandwidth, center frequency and modulation depth. Cutting-edge signal measurements The R&S®ESMD has a comprehensive tool set for any signal measurement: Parallel time and frequency analysis in zero span mode Polychrome spectrum for detecting superimposed pulsed signals Trace recording and replay
