The Interference and Direction Analyzer IDA 2 from Narda Safety Test Solutions now generates persistence spectrums. Interference hidden beneath strong signals can now be detected and traced on the spot. Sources of electromagnetic radiation that interfere with radio or wireless communications can be difficult to localize if they are swamped by the regular signals. The interference is hidden beneath the useful signal when subjected to conventional spectrum analysis.
