TSG4100A-UP-VM07 - Tektronix

RF Vector Signal Generators

TSG4100A Series

The TSG4100A Series RF Vector Signal Generator offers mid-range

performance and up to 200 MHz modulation bandwidth at an entry-level RF

signal generator price. They use a new technique to provide spurious free

outputs with low phase noise (-113 dBc/Hz at 20 kHz offset from 1 GHz

carrier) and extraordinary frequency resolution (1 μHz at any frequency).

The TSG4100A Series comes standard with analog modulation.

Convenient, in-field software upgrades allow for easy transition from analog

to more advanced vector and digital modulation capabilities, providing the

most flexible configuration and best CAPEX protection. These instruments

complement other leading mid-range RF test solutions from Tektronix, such

as the USB-based RSA306 Spectrum Analyzer and MDO4000B and

MDO3000 Mixed Domain Oscilloscopes.

The TSG4100A Series instruments use an ovenized SC-cut oscillator

(TSG410xA-M00 or E1 models) time-base, providing a 100 X improvement

in stability (and a 100 X reduction in the in-close phase noise) compared to

instruments that use a TCXO time-base.

Analog modulation

The Tektronix TSG4100A Series RF Vector Signal Generators offer a wide

variety of modulation capabilities. Modes include amplitude modulation

(AM), frequency modulation (FM), phase modulation (ΦM), and pulse

modulation. There is an internal modulation source as well as an external

modulation input. The internal modulation source produces sine, ramp,

saw, square, and noise waveforms. An external modulation signal may be

applied to the rear panel modulation input. The internal modulation

generator is available as an output on the rear panel.

Vector modulation

The TSG4100A Series builds on this performance by adding full support for

vector signal modulation on RF carriers between 400 MHz and 6.0 GHz. It

features a dual arbitrary waveform generator operating at 125 MHz for

baseband signal generation. The generator has built-in support for the most

common vector modulation schemes: ASK, QPSK, DQPSK, π/4 DQPSK,

8PSK, FSK, CPM, QAM (4 to 256), 8VSB, and 16VSB. It also includes

built-in support for all the standard pulse shaping filters used in digital

communications: raised cosine, root-raised cosine, Gaussian, rectangular,

triangular, and more. Lastly, it provides direct support for the controlled

injection of additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) into the signal path.

Internal baseband generators

Using a novel architecture for I/Q modulation, the TSG4100A Series

provides quick, user-friendly waveform generation. The baseband

generator supports the playback of pure digital data. It automatically maps

digital symbols into a selected I/Q constellation at symbol rates of up to

6 MHz and passes the result through the selected pulse shaping filter to

generate a final waveform updated in real time at 125 MHz. This baseband

signal is then modulated onto an RF carrier using standard IQ modulation

techniques.

Digital communications protocols (GSM, GSM EDGE, W-CDMA, APCO-25,

DECT, NADC, PDC, and TETRA) quickly configure the signal generator to

the correct modulation type, symbol data rates, TDMA duty cycles, and

digital waveform filters. The preset protocols also configure the rear-panel

TDMA, START of FRAME, and SYMBOL CLOCK digital outputs. The

baseband generators can be configured for these protocols without the use

of external computers or third party software.

The I/Q waveforms are computed in real time. Symbols are mapped to

constellations, digitally filtered, and up-sampled to 125 Msps to drive the I/

Q modulator via dual 14-bit DACs. The symbols can be a fixed pattern,

PRBS data from an internal source, or come from a downloaded user list of

up to 16 Mbits.

The constellation mapping can be modified by the user. Digital filters

include raised cosine, root raised cosine, Gaussian, rectangular, linear,

sinc, and user-defined FIR.

External IQ modulation

The rear-panel BNC I/Q modulation inputs and outputs enable arbitrary

vector modulation via an external source. The external signal path supports

maximally 400 MHz of RF bandwidth with a full scale range of ±0.5 V and a

50 Ω input impedance.

Power vs. frequency

All TSG4100A Series models have cascaded stages of amplifiers and

digital attenuators to drive the RF output. Five stages can provide up to

+25 dB of gain to -130 dB of attenuation in 156 digitally controlled steps.

During factory calibration, the output power is measured at 32 frequencies

per octave for each of the 156 attenuator steps to populate a memory

matrix with about 40,000 elements. When set to a particular frequency and

power, the instrument interpolates between these matrix elements to

determine the best attenuator setting. An analog attenuator is used to

provide 0.01 dB resolution between matrix elements and to compensate for

residual thermal effects.

OCXO time-base

These instruments offer an oven-controlled crystal oscillator (OCXO) time-

base. The time-base uses a third-overtone stress-compensated 10 MHz

resonator in a thermostatically controlled oven. The time-base provides

very low phase noise and very low aging.

Easy remote communications

Remote operation is supported with RS-232, LAN, and GPIB interfaces. All

instrument functions can be controlled and read over any of the interfaces.

Up to nine instrument configurations can be saved in non-volatile memory.
