R&S®EM510 HF Digital Wideband Receiver

Efficient and versatile solution for radiomonitoring

Brief Description

The R&S®EM510 HF Digital Wideband Receiver is a modern direct receiver. After the antenna signal has passed through preselection with highpass/lowpass filters, it is fed directly into the A/D converter. This concept offers a variety of advantages:

  • Extremely high scan speed
  • No image or IF frequencies (no mixers or local oscillators)
  • No local oscillator phase noise
  • Excellently suited for wideband applications
  • No interference signals from local oscillators or mixers
  • High linearity and simultaneously low power consumption
  • High MTBF due to low number of critical components

The R&S®EM510 covers the frequency range from 9 kHz to 32 MHz. A large number of IF bandwidths are available for processing the different signals with optimum signal-to-noise ratio. The use of cutting-edge digital signal processing ensures superlative results.

The receiver features digital IF filters with 30 different bandwidths from 100 Hz to 10 MHz. The filter characteristics are optimized for radiomonitoring tasks, allowing top-quality processing of signals up to 10 MHz bandwidth.
