Wireless USB Explorer 300
Wireless USB and UWB Protocol Analyzer
The Wireless USB Explorer 300 is the world's
first over-the-air MB-OFDM protocol analyzer for
WiMedia Alliance's Ultrawideband common radio
platform and Certified Wireless USB protocol.
Loaded with productivity-boosting features
for hardware engineers and software developers,
the Wireless USB Explorer 300 is ideal for
peripheral development, wireless communication
optimization, protocol stacks verification, and
other intricate development tasks. Its
high-quality Ultrawideband RF front-end records
traffic exchanged over the air between devices
so you can display the resulting decoded
information in your choice of several convenient
formats.
Designed to evolve with specification
updates, the Ellisys Wireless USB Explorer 300
protocol analyzer will help you solve current
and future WiMedia and Certified Wireless USB
challenges. Improving your time-to-market has
never been so easy!

Hardware
Over the Air Analysis
The figure below shows the simple setup
used with the Wireless USB Explorer 300
to easily analyze the behavior of a
Wireless USB network. The analyzer is
placed between wireless devices and
records all traffic exchanged over the
air. Analyzed data is then transmitted
in real time for display on the Analysis
Computer. This is the preferred method
of assessing a device’s wireless
behavior. |

MAC-PHY Interface Analysis
The figure below shows a setup for
analyzing signals exchanged between a
MAC and a PHY. The protocol analyzer
records all information sent over the
MAC/PHY Interface (MPI). This setup
helps you optimize RF quality and
prevent interoperability issues by
providing access to low-level
information. At later stages in
development, it is advised to use the
“Over the Air” analysis setup. |
