This unit
The Anritsu ME453L Microwave System Analyzer evaluates transmission line characteristics in Baseband and Intermediate Frequency bands. Built for terrestrial microwave radio relay and satellite communication systems, it delivers precise measurement and analysis of transmission distortions, modulator/demodulator performance, and frequency response across complex signal chains.
Technical Specifications
Frequency Coverage- IF Band: 70 MHz or 140 MHz
- Baseband: Eight selectable frequencies via pushbutton control; model designation (K, L, or M) determines low-frequency selection
- Optional Baseband frequencies: 55.6 kHz, 27.8 kHz, and selections from 18 to 100 Hz Measurement Suite
The ME453L characterizes transmission performance across multiple domains: transmission line characteristics in BB and IF bands, group delay, modulator and demodulator linearity, differential phase and gain, IF and BB amplitude characteristics, IF and BB return loss, modulator and demodulator sensitivity, frequency deviation, AM to PM conversion coefficient, DC characteristics, power/gain/loss analysis, and integrated IF counter functionality. Display & Control
CRT display with LED readout of transmitter settings (deviation, sweep width, center frequency). Automatic receiver configuration selects and displays deviation, IF level, BB frequency, level, calibration, and attenuation. Scale sensitivity and measurement units display automatically.
Key Features
- Eight selectable Baseband frequencies with pushbutton switching
- Dual IF Band options at 70 MHz or 140 MHz
- Optional BB Amplitude Characteristics measurement
- Integrated IF counter for direct frequency verification
- Automatic calibration and attenuation control
- Real-time LED transmitter parameter display
Typical Applications
- Link device adjustment and optimization
- System construction and field installation
- Maintenance and troubleshooting of active microwave links
- Research and Development evaluation
- FDM-FM and digital microwave communication link characterization
Compatibility & Integration Primary use in terrestrial microwave radio relay systems and satellite communication networks where BB and IF band analysis is required.
