Agilent New Design and Test Solutions for W-CDMA/EDGE/Bluetooth in the Agilent 89400 Series New options enhance the 89400 series vector signal analyzers to keep up with evolving standards such as EDGE and W-CDMA. These enhancements build on the 89400 series and its existing measurements for GSM and BTS transmitter tests of W-CDMA experimental systems. Advanced digital RF transmission techniques are also being applied to short range, low power applications. The Bluetooth standard combines digital modulation, bursting and a frequency hopping spread-spectrum technique.
