Dynamic Signal Strength Meter 1B

Order Code DSSM1B

The DSSM1B is a high dynamic range, broadband RF signal detector capable of detecting signals, even if their duration is only a few microseconds.

Since modern RF devices often transmit very short duration pulses, their signal can easily be missed by a traditional spectrum analyser or analogue signal strength meter. Whereas, the fast response of the DSSM1B allows it to detect almost any RF signal from 3MHz to 6GHz irrespective of its nature.

As well as the DSSM1B's ability to detect short RF pulses, its scrolling time-domain display reveals superimposed signals that would otherwise be invisible to a spectrum analyser or traditional signal strength meter.

The equipment also includes an audio output (Variable Tone or AM Demodulation with Squelch function and adjustable volume), digital sensitivity adjustment and illuminated display for improved usability.

To summarise, the DSSM1B is an instrument that can discriminate between different signals, even when they occupy the same frequency band, including modern Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) systems such as Wi-Fi, GSM, DECT and Bluetooth etc.
