N7660B Signal Studio software is for multi-emitter scenario generation. Provides multi-emitter signals downloadable to one or more Keysight N5193A UXG agile signal generators for testing of electronic countermeasures systems. With the MESG capability, it reportedly simplifies threat interleaving for ECM system test applications such as sorting and identification, subsystem interface management and threat correlation. Graphical user interface permits configuration of radar parameters such as frequency, amplitude and pulse width, and then interleave multiple radar emitters. Can combine radars into scenarios using dropped-pulse reports. Can reduce pulse collisions by changing emitter start times, priorities and pulse-repetition intervals, by toggling emitters on and off, and by adding more UXG signal generators to the simulation. Can download multi-emitter scenarios directly to one or more UXGs as pulse descriptor word lists. UXG provides phase-coherent frequency and amplitude transitions as fast as 180ns, timing resolution of 2ns, and dynamic range of -70dBc.
