Migration examples
When migrating from an 8510/8530 to a PNA Series network analyzer, it is important to recog-
nize the differences in power, speed and sensitivity between the analyzers.
In remote mixing congurations, using Option H11, the damage level of the PNA is much
lower than the 8510/8530. You must assure that the power going into the analyzer does
not exceed –27 dBm by placing attenuators between the 85309B and the H11 inputs. Re-
view section “Option H11 – IF access” earlier in this document for more detailed informa-
tion.
The internal source of the PNA and PNA-X improves the measurement speed over an ex-
ternal source, however, the internal source is not always feasible to use.
The IF BW setting on the PNA, PNA-L and PNA-X is adjustable, the IF BW of the
8510/8530 was xed, so sensitivity can be changed by adjusting the IF BW setting on the
PNA Series.
For fastest remote control of the PNA and PNA-X, the use of COM programming is recom-
mended. See “Measurement Automation” later in this document. Contact your Keysight
Applications Engineer for additional assistance with programming.
The following two examples show conceptually how to migrate from an 8510/8530 to a PNA
or PNA-X based antenna system. Since every system is unique, it is not feasible to show
every modication necessary for the conversion. Refer to Antenna measurement design
considerations” earlier in this document for additional guidance, or contact your Keysight ap-
plications engineer for assistance.
1. For long distance applications,
the use of two GPS receivers
to supply the 10 MHz reference
may be used.
