R&S®ETC Compact TV Analyzer Economical TV transmitter testing Product Brochure | Version 05.00
Open the catalog to page 1R&S®ETC Compact TV Analyzer At a glance The R&S®ETC compact TV analyzer offers a comprehensive set of measurement functions for DVB-T2, DVB-T/DVB-H and ISDB-T digital TV transmitter testing. It is also useful for service and maintenance of TV transmitters as well as for testing modulators in R & D or quality assurance environments. The design of the analyzer is ideal for coverage measurements in broadcast network planning. The R&S®ETC is specialized in TV analysis and also performs spectrum and scalar network analysis as well as power measurements. For tests that require higher sensitivity...

Open the catalog to page 3Comprehensive analysis of digital signal transmission Measurement of DVB-T2, DVB-T/DVB-H and I SDB-T digital signal parameters The R&S®ETC compact TV analyzer measures key parameters and displays them on its color LCD, allowing users to visually judge the quality of the received signal at a glance. The TV analyzer function of the R&S®ETC reads the configuration of the actual TV signal from its signaling information and sets the receiver parameters accordingly. Full support of DVB-T2 single and multi-PLP transmission mode Multi-PLP menu. For DVB-T2, the R&S®ETC supports measurement of both...
Open the catalog to page 4Precise measure ment with realtime demodulation FPGA-based realtime digital TV demodulator for maximum measurement accuracy The core component of the R&S®ETC is an FPGA-based measurement demodulator that demodulates and decodes the received signal in realtime. The FPGA implementation helps to ensure minimum tolerances and therefore high accuracy and reproducibility. The R&S®ETC achieves a MER value of typ. 44 dB at 500 MHz, which is excellent in its class. Support of TV signal analysis with and without FEC lock The R&S®ETC allows users to demodulate the RF signal with and without FEC lock....
Open the catalog to page 5Easy operation, network coverage analysis and automatic test measurement Fast selection of functions via keypad and rotary knob The R&S®ETC can be operated conveniently using the keypad and the rotary knob with built-in Enter key. Basic functions are assigned to fixed function keys, while navigation in the menus of the different measurement screens is performed via softkeys. Easy compliance testing based on limit tables To check a TV transmitter against its specifications, a large number of parameters must be confirmed and compared with the permissible limit values. The R&S®ETC c...
Open the catalog to page 6Video/audio decoding and data logging Editing and customizing of channel tables, measurement profiles, and transducer and limit tables The R&S®ETCView PC software, which comes with the R&S®ETC, allows users to perform convenient bidirectional data transfer between the R&S®ETC and PC via USB or LAN interface. It includes editors to generate measurement profiles and limit value, transducer, cable model and channel tables, and transfers them to and from the R&S®ETC. MPEG decoding and analysis The R&S®ETC-B280 MPEG decoder option enables users to visually check the received program. It decodes...
Open the catalog to page 7Application examples Complete on‑site transmitter measurements including out-ofband emissions The relevant test specifications for digital TV transmitters usually require the following measurements: ❙❙ Output power ❙❙ MER of the OFDM signal and the individual carriers ❙❙ Bit error ratio ❙❙ Out-of-band emissions Out-of-band emissions is one of the measurements required during commissioning, service and maintenance of TV transmitters. It checks whether there are unwanted signal components in a transmitter’s adjacent channels. The R&S®ETC provides an easy way to test a TV transmitter’s...
Open the catalog to page 8Testing transposers using the R&S®ETC in combination with the R&S®SFC-U The measurement of transposers is essential to ensuring good quality of retransmitted signals. The signal quality can be measured at the input and output of transposers as well as the mask filter. The signal fed into a transposer is always an RF signal received over the air by an antenna. A weak output signal from the transposer could be caused either by the transposer itself or by weak signal reception. The measurements required for the transposer are the same as those for the TV transmitter but with an additional test...
