The Vector Signal Generator (VSG) can be used to generate complex quadrature communication modulation schemes or be used as a simple signal generator. This VSG has a frequency range of 6 GHz and a modulation bandwidth of 100 MHz. When two of the VSGs are combined in one chassis, they can operate from the same local oscillator to generate phase coherent signals from their 1MSa memory. The VSG is housed in an 18-slot M9019A Gen 3 Chassis and uses an M9037A Controller with a swappable SSD drive.
