The R&S®FU129 antenna filter unit is placed close to the receiving antennas. It comes with an antenna input selector for remote controlled switching of up to six antenna inputs to one output. Unwanted signals, such as those caused by nearby mobile base stations or strong sound and TV broadcast transmitters, can be reduced to levels suitable for the connected receiver by applying optional filters. Both strong useful signals and interfering signals can be suppressed.
All R&S®FU129 functions are controlled either directly by a control PC (connected to the R&S®FU129 via a LAN cable) or by the tried-and-tested R&S®MSD antenna switching unit.
Excellent documentation for both interfaces ensures that end customers and system integrators can easily integrate the R&S®FU129 into customized systems and existing projects.
When using the comprehensive and convenient R&S®ARGUS 6.1 monitoring software, integration of the R&S®FU129 offers the opportunity to carry out extremely challenging and complex measurement series fully automatically. This includes selecting one of various antennas and switching the antenna paths as required, with and without filters, amplifiers, etc. The area of reception is covered by directional antennas that are turned with rotators.
The software comes standard with path correction tables to compensate for the insertion loss in defined paths. This allows R&S®ARGUS 6.1 to display the correct field strength levels for all configurations.
