HP 8590 E-Series User Manual

Option 101 or Option 151 support negative peak detection for an HP 85933, HP 85943,
HP 8595E, and HP 85963. The negative peak detector capability is useful for video modulator
balance adjustments and intermodulation distortion measurements. Option 101 allows negative
peak detection with sweep times as high as 200 ms. Option 151 allows negative peak detection
with sweep times as high as 800 ms.
Option 151 requires the installation of Option 160 or 163.
PDC/PHS/NADC/CDMA Firmware for Option 151 (Option 160)
fir HP 85933, HP 8594E, HP 85953, and HP 85963 with Option 151 only. Option 160 provides
the digital signal processing (DSP) firmware ROMs necessary to perform PDC, PHS, or NADC
digital demodulation-based measurements. It also includes DSP-assisted measurements for
CDMA.
Option 160 implements a coherent downconversion, and calculates the minimum RMS error
vector magnitude of a timeslot. Carrier frequency error and I-Q origin offset are also extracted
from sampled data.
Option 151 with Option 160 and the HP 85718B NADC-TDMA measurements personality
provide a complete NADC transmitter RF measurement solution including modulation metrics.
Option 151 with Option 160 and the HP 8572OC PDC measurements personality provide a
complete PDC transmitter RF measurement solution including modulation metrics.
Option 151 with Option 160 and the HP 85725B CDMA measurements personality provide a
CDMA transmitter measurement solution with fast DSP-assisted measurements.
Option 151 with Option 160 and the HP 85726B PHS measurements personality provide a
complete PHS transmitter RF measurement solution including modulation metrics.
GSM/DCS1800 Firmware for Option 151 (Option 163)
For HP 8593E, HP 8594E, HP 85953, and HP 85963 with Option 151 only. Option 163 provides
Option 151 Digital Demodulator hardware with a firmware algorithm that demodulates GSM
and DCS1800 radio carriers in order to make modulation quality measurements.
Option 163 is also available as a retrofit kit (Option R63) for spectrum analyzers that already
have Option 151 installed. For analyzers that do not have Option 151 installed, a retrofit kit
(Option R73) is available to provide both options 151 and 163.
TV Picture Display (Option 180)
For HP 8591C, HP 8591E, HP 85933, HP 8594E, HP 8595E, and HP 8596E only. Option 180
allows you to view an NTSC, PAL, or SECAM television picture on the spectrum analyzer
display.
Option 180 is also available as a retrofit kit (Option RSO) after the purchase of your spectrum
analyzer, or as a kit HP part number 08591-60089.
