2 02 Keysight N7610B Signal Studio for Short Range Communications - Technical Overview Introduction N7610B is a Signal Studio software for short range communications consisting of emerging short-range wireless technologies currently used in the Internet of Things (IoT) and Machine-to-Machine (M2M) markets. Most of the short range communication technologies are implemented in small, low-cost IC forms or complete drop-in modules. Either for one technology format, such as ZigBee, or multi-format combination modules including WLAN, Bluetooth and ZigBee, Signal Studio software provides a flexible suite of signal-creation tools that can help R&D and test engineers reduce receiver testing time on chip-set design, validation and troubleshooting. Combined with Keysight signal generators, the N7610B provides performance-optimized reference signals to enhance the characterization and verification of Devices Under Test (DUTs). Through its application-specific user interface, engineers can create standardsbased and custom test signals for component and receiver tests. The N7610B consists of different options that provide advanced capabilities to address applications defined in IEEE for ZigBee O-QPSK and g for Wi-SUN MR-FSK and MR-OFDM, respectively. Use the baseband signal to perform demodulation and decoding verification on chips. To thoroughly test the demodulation capabilities of a module, a fully-coded test signal is necessary. This level of coding enables engineer to determine if each functional stage of a receiver is operating correctly and enables the use of the test signal to perform Packet Error Rate (PER) measurements. The N7610B s graphical interface provides a direct instrument connection for parameter transfer and closed-loop or interactive control during signal generation. After a signal is set up in Signal Studio, it can be downloaded into a variety of Keysight insturments. Signal Studio software complemets these platforms by providing a cost-effective way to tailor them to the test needs in design, development and production test. Figure 1.

6 06 Keysight N7610B Signal Studio for Short Range Communications - Technical Overview Key Specifications The following performance characteristics apply to the N7610B Signal Studio for Wi- SUN application. Definitions Typical (typ): Represents characteristic performance, which 80% of the instruments manufactured will meet. This data is not warranted, does not include measurement uncertainty, and is valid only at room temperature (approximately 25 C). Characteristic Performance: Non-warranted value based on testing during development phase of this product. The EVM measurements were made with an N9030A PXA signal analyzer with Option B1X (160 MHz bandwidth), using the Keysight 89601B VSA software with Option AYA for 2FSK and Option BHF for MR-OFDM modulation analysis. The ACP measurement setting for 2FSK uses the definition in section of the IEEE g-2012 standard. The ACP values for MR-OFDM are measured on the first out-of-band channels (upper and lower), which are adjacent to the in-band channel. The bandwidth for both the in-band and out-of-band channels are set as the Channel Spacing values defined in Table 148 of the IEEE Standard g-2012, i.e., 1200 khz, 800 khz, 400 khz and 200 khz for OFDM Options 1, 2, 3 and 4 respectively.
