The '''RSAVu''' software enables offline analysis of data captured from Tektronix Real-Time Spectrum Analyzers (RTSAs) and oscilloscopes.  The software offers users the same demodulation and analysis capabilities included in the RSA3408B software option suite. From 3G wireless standards to the latest RFID formats and pulsed-signal analysis, RSAVu is a tool designers can use to analyze signals without having acquisition hardware connected.
The '''RSAVu''' software enables you to use a Windows-based PC to analyze '''.iqt''' and '''.tiq''' waveform data files saved by Tektronix Real-Time Spectrum Analyzers (RTSAs),  oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers.  The software emulates the RSA3408B spectrum analyzer software option suite, which allows the user to perform the same analysis on a PC that one can perform on an RSA3408B spectrum analyzer.
 
When used with the RSA6000 Series RTSA and oscilloscopes, RSAVu can be installed and manually operated directly on the instrument.  The maximum file size supported for a .tiq file is 256 MB.


The software supports data files saved on the RSA6106A, RSA6114A, RSA3408A/B, RSA3308A/B and RSA3303A/B Real-Time Spectrum Analyzers and DSA/DSO70000 Series oscilloscopes with option UWB.
Notes regarding the RSA6100A series:
* When using this instrument to analyzer RFID or W-LAN signals, Tektronix recommends a real-time bandwidth of 40 MHz or lower to limit the effects of the noise floor on measurements.
* The Modulation Fidelity measurement will not work with files from an RSA6100A Series instrument.


When used with the RSA6000 Series RTSA and oscilloscopes, RSAVu can be installed and manually operated directly on the instrument.  When used on an external PC, RSAVu supports a remote interface for performing data analysis in automated test environment.  Users can programmatically load RSA data files and extract demodulated parameters using their test software to minimize time required for conformance and stress testing.
