What are you looking for?
Keysight Spectrum Management Software (KSMS)
A signal monitoring tool kit to detect, locate, and mitigate interference issues
Keysight Spectrum Management Software (KSMS)
Control your spectrum, measure utilization, and identify interference, all in a single platform.
Spectrum management key features
Spectrum trace
Monitor the spectrum from multiple receivers (FieldFox) across several frequencies or antennas.
Spectrogram
Capture and display time-variant signals across multiple receivers.
Spectrum occupancy
Report frequency band and channel utilization rate.
Directional finding with TDOA
Locate the source of unknown emitters and interfering signals.
Time Difference of Arrival (TDOA) with KSMS
TDOA is an emerging directional finding technique providing accurate results with as little as ten meters of uncertainty.
Using this method, several FieldFox analyzers in separate
geographical locations with synchronized GPS signals can determine the location
of an unknown signal source.

Frequently asked questions
What Is spectrum management?
Spectrum management is the process of regulating and allocating the use of the electromagnetic spectrum. The goal of spectrum management is to efficiently use the limited frequency spectrum through monitoring spectrum control and utilization. This involves assessing channel assignment, signal leakage, and interference hunting. With this, the same band can support the ever-growing development of wireless communication technologies through careful RF monitoring.
What Is signal monitoring?
Signal monitoring is a technical task within the broader umbrella of spectrum management. It involves observing, recording, and analyzing the signals within a specified frequency of interest to differentiate interference from legitimate activity. This can include monitoring various wireless signals such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, cellular, or satellite signals.
What are the effects of RF interference?
RF interference can cause data loss, increased noise, reduced range, signal degradation, device malfunction, and security vulnerabilities, which can significantly impact the functionality of electronic devices and communication systems.
Why use Keysight Spectrum Management Software?
KSMS is an advanced spectrum monitoring system. Use KSMS to control your spectrum, measure utilization, and identify interference, all in a single platform. Unlock remote spectrum monitoring without being held back by fixed test sites.
How does KSMS software work with the FieldFox handheld analyzer?
KSMS uses FieldFox as a monitoring device by connecting through ethernet, Wi-Fi, or a modem. Customers can then use the same instrument for the entire life cycle of interference hunting, including last-mile testing and locating interference sources. FieldFox enables you with the convenience of portable test sites, while KSMS provides remote field monitoring capabilities.
