3-8 Interference Mapping Interference Analyzer (Option 25)
3-10 PN: 10580-00349 Rev. H Spectrum Analyzer MG
Interference Mapping (Antenna Only)
1. Capture a map using Anritsu easyMap Tools.
Anritsu easyMap Tools allows you to capture maps of any location and create Anritsu Map
Files. These Geo-enabled maps are viewed on the Anritsu instrument during interference
mapping. There are two Anritsu Map Files formats: (.map and .azm) used for Interference
Mapping.
• .azm map files allow Pan and Zoom on the instrument.
• .map map files are in a legacy format compatible with older firmware.
Download easyMap Tools from the Anritsu website (www.anritsu.com). Additional
information about easyMap Tools is available in the software Help.
2. Move the map file to the Anritsu instrument.
Copy the map file to a USB memory stick and then insert the memory stick into the Anritsu
instrument’s USB Type A port. Anritsu recommends copying the map file to the instrument’s
internal memory. Refer to Anritsu instrument User Guide for additional information.
3. Set the Anritsu instrument to IA Mapping and configure the instrument.
A. Connect a directional antenna in the frequency range of interest to the Anritsu
instrument’s RF In connector.
B. Open up the Interference Analyzer by pressing the Menu key and selecting the
Interference Analyzer icon or press Shift then Mode (9), highlight Interference Analysis
and press Enter.
C. Press the Measurements main menu key then press the Interference Mapping submenu
key twice to display the Interference Mapping menu.
D. Turn on GPS.
a. Press Shift then System (8).
b. Press the GPS submenu key.
c. Connect a GPS antenna to the SMA connector.
d. Set the GPS voltage to match the antenna you are using, then press the GPS
On/Off submenu key to select On.
e. Press GPS Info and verify that the information from three or more satellites is
captured. Press Esc to close the info box.
Note
Anritsu instrument requirements:
• Option 31, GPS is required for Interference Mapping
• Option 25, Interference Analysis
• Directional antenna and compass
Note
The map should extend beyond the estimated location of bearing readings and
have the general location of the interferer centered in the map.
