OASIS Spectrum Monitoring & Interference Analysis Software shifts the focus from how to gather and interpret the data to a focus on solving spectrum management issues. It provides more complete and useable information than available from switch metrics. OASIS transforms the spectrum analyzer or any other RF receiver from an analytical instrument, displaying single sweeps of power vs. frequency to a comprehensive spectrum management tool. And with its unattended operation feature, OASIS captures and characterizes transient events without keeping an engineer or technician in the field.

OASIS is an affordable spectrum monitoring software application that provides a variety of tools and utilities beneficial to:

• Maintaining a high quality of service in wireless networks
• Surveying the RF environment for undesired, unauthorized transmissions or threats
• Locating the source of interfering signals
• Recording a history of the RF environment for subsequent replay and analysis
• Identifying changes in the RF environment

Zelscope is a Windows software that converts your PC into a dual-trace storage oscilloscope and spectrum analyzer. It uses your computer’s sound card as analog-to-digital converter, presenting a real-time waveform or spectrum of the signal - which can be music, speech, or output from an electronic circuit. Zelscope features the interface of a traditional oscilloscope, with conventional gain, offset, timebase, and trigger controls. As a real-time spectrum analyzer, Zelscope can display the amplitude and phase components of the spectrum.

Photonic crystal fiber’s ability to create broad spectra of light, which will be the basis for important developments in technology, has been explained for the first time in an article in the leading science journal Nature-Photonics.The fiber can change a pulse of light with a narrow range of wavelengths into a spectrum hundreds of times broader and ranging from visible light to the infra-red. This is called a supercontinuum.

This supercontinuum is one of the most exciting areas of applied physics today and the ability to create it easily will have a significant effect on technology.

This includes telecommunications, where optical systems hundreds of times more efficient than existing types will be created because signals can be transmitted and processed at many wavelengths simultaneously.
