Excellent in the field Lightweight, small and long battery life The unique combination of low weight, small footprint, short boot time and the longest battery life on the market makes the R&S®Spectrum Rider FPH ideal for work in the field, even in remote, difficult-to-reach locations. Protected The R&S®Spectrum Rider FPH can operate an entire working day (more than 6 hours) without recharging or changing the battery. It weighs only 2.5 kg (5.5 lb) including battery.
Excellent for lab diagnostics Solid RF performance for diagnostics in the lab With a phase noise of –105 dBc (1 Hz) at 100 kHz offset from the carrier, a total measurement uncertainty of 0.5 dB and its high sensitivity (displayed average noise level (DANL) of typ. < –163 dBm (10 MHz to 3 GHz with preamplifier on)), the R&S®Spectrum Rider FPH is a powerful and easy-to-use spectrum analyzer for RF diagnostics in service and development labs.
User-friendly Easy to use with smartphone-like gestures on the touchscreen The R&S®Spectrum Rider FPH offers flexible and straight- forward operation. Depending on the application, it can be operated either via its 7" capacitive touchscreen or with keys. The analyzer´s unique capacitive touchscreen enables users to adjust the most common settings, such as center frequency, span and reference level, and manage markers with intuitive gestures as with a smartphone.

Future-ready Multipurpose use in various industries, R&D and education Software-upgradeable frequency ranges The R&S®Spectrum Rider FPH is the first handheld a nalyzer with software-upgradeable frequency ranges. The units handle frequencies between 5 kHz and up to 31 GHz. There is no downtime for the upgrade and no recalibration needed after the upgrade. This allows users to extend the frequency range whenever required. For example, users who have the 26.
Optional software applications Power measurements with power sensors For applications requiring very high accuracy to measure and align transmitter levels, the R&S®FPH-K9 option a llows the R&S®Spectrum Rider FPH to be used for power measurements together with the R&S®NRP power sensor series, with a measurement range of –70 dBm to +45 dBm and covering frequencies up to 110 GHz.
AM/FM analysis The R&S®FPH-K7 option converts the R&S®Spectrum Rider FPH into an analog modulation analyzer to measure the quality of amplitude or frequency-modulated signals. The analog modulation display shows the waveform as well as measurement parameters such as carrier power, carrier offset, modulation index (depth) for AM signals, frequency deviation for FM signals, SINAD, THD, etc. The modulation summary display provides user-definable limits for each measurement.
Standard features Optional features ❙❙ Two spectrum traces ❙❙ Six markers, absolute or relative ❙❙ Noise marker ❙❙ Frequency counter with 0.
Increasing productivity through measurement wizard Site surveys or the installation and maintenance of transmitter stations often require a standard set of spectrum measurements. These measurements must be performed correctly to avoid additional costs and time on site. Simplified measurements The measurement wizard simplifies measurements by automating, standardizing and optimizing test sequences. A sequence of standardized and recurring measurements can be performed quickly, easily and without mistakes.
Three simple steps needed to work with the measurement wizard A Project manager/expert creates the test sequences B Operator uses the wizard to execute the test sequences C Operator shows the measurement result to the project manager/ expert and documents it Typical deployment setup with measurement preparations and postprocessing Central preparation Wizard presets Wizard-guided test sequence Site 1 Site 2 Site 3 Site n Uniform reporting Test reports Evaluations Rohde & Schwarz R&S®Spec
Postprocessing and remote control R&S®Instrument View software for measurement postprocessing and documentation The R&S®Instrument View Windows software comes with the instrument. It makes it easy to postprocess and document measurement results and manage instrument settings.
