The IQ Analyzer, Recorder, Trigger, and Magnitude View option for the Narda SignalShark expands the instrument’s functionality by enabling comprehensive capture, analysis, and visualization of I/Q data. This powerful combination supports advanced RF signal intelligence, enabling users to inspect modulation schemes, signal anomalies, and time-domain behavior in detail.
The IQ Analyzer displays the captured I/Q signals graphically, offering insight into phase, amplitude, and modulation characteristics. The built-in recorder allows users to store I/Q data for post-analysis or archival, while the trigger functionality lets users set conditions to automatically begin recording or capture upon specific signal events — ideal for identifying transient or intermittent signals.
The Magnitude View presents the envelope of the signal over time, offering a clear picture of amplitude variations and allowing quick identification of modulated bursts, pulse width, and timing characteristics. Together, these capabilities make the SignalShark an effective tool for locating, characterizing, and verifying complex signal environments.
