CABLE AND ANTENNA ANALYZER WITH TRANSMISSION MODE
The iVA-TMA is a software option that adds Transmission Mode measurement capability to the iVA Cable and Antenna Analyzer. The iVA-TMA includes all of the existing features of the base iVA model, plus a suite of multi-port Transmission testing options.
Transmission mode enables two or more iVAs to operate in a coordinated fashion to perform accurate swept insertion loss, antenna isolation and antenna radiation pattern measurements.
Sample Testing Scenario:
6 iVAs with Transmission mode can be used to perform measurements on a multi-port antenna. This configuration covers all 36 transmission pathways (6×6), including return loss at each port (6 measurements) and the transmission loss between each possible pair of ports (30 measurements).
Transmission mode requires 2 or more iVA-TMAs.
FEATURES
- Directly measure insertion loss and isolation
- Up to 7 units can be connected together via Bluetooth
- Accurately measure transmission loss (Magnitude only)
- 90 dB dynamic range
- Comes with all features of base iVA
