R&S®ARGUS-IT Spectrum Monitoring and Management System
From stand alone systems to completely automated nationwide networks
A future-oriented investment that will pay off
Typical spectrum monitoring tasks can be classified as follows:
- Investigation of interference due to co-channel emissions, out-of-channel emissions and intermodulation
- Monitoring of technical transmitter parameters (short-term, long-term, deviation measurements of FM broadcast transmitters)
- Field strength measurements
- Identification of unlicensed stations
- Spectrum occupancy measurements
- Planning and management of transmitters
Hardware and software are therefore required to perform and evaluate the following:
- Frequency and frequency offset measurements (ITU-R SM.377)
- Field strength measurements (ITU-R SM.378)
- Bandwidth measurements (ITU-R SM.443)
- Spectrum occupancy measurements (ITU-R SM.182/ITU-R SM.328)
- Modulation depth and frequency deviation measurements (ITU-R SM.328)
- Radio direction finding and location, listening and identification in the HF (ITU-R SM.854), V/UHF and higher frequency ranges
Rohde & Schwarz’s highly sophisticated Spectrum Monitoring and Management System R&S® ARGUS-IT is the perfect solution to all measurement and analysis problems related to spectrum monitoring and management. Rohde & Schwarz, the leader in this international marketplace, has consistently demonstrated this over many years.
R&S® ARGUS-IT is modular, scalable and upgradeable. Therefore, a user can select a basic version according to the available budget, just starting with a core set of equipment for a modest amount outlay. A nationwide system can be created incrementally just by adding additional hardware and software modules.
