Description

Detection, classification, demodulation and decoding of communications signals
Key facts
  • Supports automatic interception and monitoring of complete signal scenarios
  • Powerful classifier and extensive signal processing library with demodulators and decoders
  • Configurable detection of fixed frequency and burst signals with subsequent automatic processing of detected signals (including content recovery depending on signal type)
  • Modular scalability from one-channel to four-channel signal processing solution (multichannel capability available if connected to a Rohde & Schwarz monitoring receiver/digital direction finder with internal digital downconverters, e.g. R&S®ESME/ESMD/EB510/EB500/DDF260/DDF255/DDF205)
  • Open interface for independent extension of signal processing capabilities by the user
  • Manual signal measurement in line with ITU-R SM.1600
  • Signal recording and replaying to/from hard disk

Brief description R&S®CA100 is a standalone software solution for analysis, classification, demodulation and decoding of digital and analog IF signals. The software provides powerful signal analysis and signal processing functions and runs on a Windows PC. If connected to modern Rohde & Schwarz monitoring receivers with internal digital downconverters (DDC), e.g. R&S®ESME or R&S®ESMD, up to four signals can be processed in parallel.
