Signal Studio software for
pulse building
The Signal Studio software for pulse
building is the first of a collection of PC
applications that is compatible with the
new PSG vector signal generator. Agilent
is introducing this application on the PSG
vector, which allows radar system devel-
opers to create optimized pulsed signals
using the I/Q signals from the baseband
generator.
When utilizing this Signal Studio software,
the mathematics required to calculate the
I/Q waveform samples will be transparent
to the user. By simply setting a few high-
level pulse parameters like rise time, ramp
profile, intra-pulse modulation — even the
novice user can create complex radar
waveforms. When combined with an
Agilent ESA or PSA spectrum analyzer, the
Pulse Builder software applies pre-distor-
tion to the calculated waveform to
improve image rejection and RF flatness.
Corrections can also be applied to custom
I/Q user data that has been imported to
the software For further information about

Agilent Technologies is committed to
providing the latest emerging communica-
tions formats. Signal Studio software
enables you to support new applications
so you can develop custom waveforms
quickly. The list of supported applications
will grow as industry requirements evolve.
Signal Studio software
Signal Studio is a collection of independent
software applications that enable users to
create waveform files for specific applica-
tions. The intuitive, easy-to-use graphical
interface allows various signal parameters
to be set for flexible waveform generation.
Signal Studio downloads the waveforms
into the PSG vector signal generators
equipped with baseband generators
and then configures the instrument to
automatically generate the signal.
The Signal Studio software for pulse
building allows:
• Easy navigation of the intuitive user
interface
• Creation of a pulse library
• Construction of custom pulse shapes
• Applying intra-pulse modulation
• Building a pattern library
• Application of baseband pre-distortion
• Improve image rejection
• Optimization of RF modulation flatness
• Automation using the COM-based API
