Description

A PXI Vector Transceiver is a modular RF test and measurement instrument designed for generating and analysing radio-frequency signals in automated testing environments. It combines vector signal generation and signal analysis capabilities in a PXI-based platform, making it suitable for testing wireless communication devices, RF components, and electronic systems. Depending on the model, it may support configurable frequency ranges, adjustable output power, modulation analysis, signal generation, and vector signal measurements. PXI vector transceivers are widely used in research and development, wireless communication testing, radar testing, aerospace and defence electronics, semiconductor testing, and automated production test systems. Their modular design allows integration into PXI chassis and computer-controlled test setups, supporting synchronised measurements and scalable test configurations. Available specifications vary by manufacturer and model, including frequency coverage, instantaneous bandwidth, signal bandwidth, output power, measurement accuracy, and supported modulation formats.
