offers u the RSA3408B software option suite. From 3G wireless standards to the latest RFID formats and pulsed-signal analysis, RSAVu is a tool designers can use to analyze signals without having acquisition hardware connected. The software supports data ﬁles saved on the RSA6106A, RSA6114A, RSA3408A/B, R SA3 308A/B and RSA3303A/B Real-Time Spectrum Analyz

When used with the RSA6000 Series RTSA and oscilloscopes, RSAVu can be i used on an external PC, RSAVu supports a remote interface for performing data analysis in automated test environment. Users can programmatically load RSA data ﬁles and extract demodulated parameters using their test software to minimize time required for conformance and stress testing.
