Hopefully this update finds you doing alright during this interesting time in history. The Signal Hound team (and families) are all well and good, adjusting to the current state of normal as best we can. A large part of our staff continues to work remotely, including our software developers who have just released some new—and […]

The Internet of Things (IoT) is accelerating the need for connectivity to a wide range of applications. Technologies like WLAN and Bluetooth are positioned to capture large portions of this market segment. WLAN (or Wi-Fi) standards are being expanded to address higher data rates, transmit range and even battery efficiency.
Our Spike spectrum analyzer software now includes specialized WLAN modulation analysis features. This capability is designed specifically for making physical (PHY) layer measurements on WLAN transmitting devices. It provides RF metrics to accurately evaluate your signal performance and quality. You can demodulate your waveforms to see the header signal information and analyze modulation quality down to the bit level.
