The Agilent/Keysight N9029AV1B is a W-CDMA/HSPA+ measurement application that extends the capabilities of Keysight X-Series signal analyzers for comprehensive wireless device and network testing. It delivers one-button RF conformance measurements aligned with 3GPP specifications, streamlining design validation, evaluation, and manufacturing workflows for W-CDMA, HSPA, and HSPA+ standards.
Technical Specifications
The application supports RF transmitter measurements across time, frequency, and modulation domains for both eNB and UE devices. HSPA+ peak data rates reach 42.2 Mbps with 64QAM and MIMO downlink, and 84.4 Mbps with 64QAM DC-HSDPA and MIMO downlink operation. Downlink modulation includes 64QAM; uplink supports 16QAM.
– Key Features
• One-button measurements simplify setup and execution for rapid RF conformance testing
• Automatic detection of downlink channels and signals reduces manual configuration
• 3GPP TS 25 preset recall for eNB conformance testing
• W-CDMA measurements: EVM, peak code domain error, frequency error, channel power, ACP, occupied bandwidth, and spectrum emission mask
• HSPA measurements: auto-detection of 16QAM E-DPDCH, 64QAM HS-PDSCH, and Test Model 6
• MIMO and dual-carrier operation support
• Transportable licensing enables deployment across multiple X-Series analyzers
– Compatibility & Integration
The N9029AV1B operates with Keysight X-Series signal analyzers including PXA, MXA, and EXA models. Its transportable license structure allows flexible reassignment between compatible instruments while maintaining consistent measurement frameworks and leveraging the performance characteristics of the selected analyzer hardware.
