The Keysight Technologies, Inc. N6841A RF Sensor represents an entirely new concept in spectrum monitoring. Communication signals have evolved dramatically and continue to do so as new and emerging wireless standards are defined and deployed. These new generation signals are wider bandwidth, more complex, time variant and low power. Traditional methods of monitoring communication signals from outside the city limits, a crowded vehicle or walking with a handheld analyzer just don’t work well on these new standards or today’s interference problems.
