Application Demos: Streaming Data with PXI Express Modular Instruments

High speed data streaming represents a revolutionary increase in the functionality of instruments. No longer bound by limited onboard memory, scientists and engineers can explore new applications involving extremely large data sets, either for extended duration, higher speeds, or both. Furthermore, they can better integrate their tests with real world signals, acquiring them, then playing them back in a controlled environment. The demonstrations below highlight a few such applications.

RF Record and Playback

Learn how real world RF signals can be recorded for up to hours of time and played back in a laboratory environment.

Streaming IQ Generation

Learn how you can synchronize PXI Express arbitrary waveform generators and utilize a 3rd party quadrature modulator to generate wideband high definition television.

Streaming IF Acquisition

Observe how the analysis of large, continuous waveforms acquired by a PXI Express digitizer can reveal errors not uncovered by instruments which use repetitive triggering.

Streaming Video to an LCD Monitor via PXI Express

Watch how high speed digital output can source pixel data and clocks for generating an image on and testing an LCD monitor.

Streaming for Signal Intelligence

Watch how RF stream-to-disk systems enable a variety of post-processing routines used in signal intelligence applications.
