Description:
National Physical Laboratory is seeking a high-performance RF Spectrum Analyser with specific requirements including a frequency range up to 26.5 GHz, low phase noise performance, and a displayed average noise level of -140 dBm or better.
The National Physical Laboratory (NPL) requires a high-performance signal/spectrum analyser to support advanced research and development activities in the fields of quantum computing enabling technologies such as parametric amplifiers, and cryogenic RF components. This procurement aims to upgrade NPL's measurement capabilities to meet the increasing demand for precision and sensitivity in these cutting-edge domains.

The spectrum analyser should meet the following primary requirements:

- Frequency Range: Up to 26.5 GHz to cover the necessary measurement spectrum for quantum computing and RF component testing.
- Phase Noise Performance: Low phase noise (< -136 dBc/Hz at 1 GHz, 10 kHz offset) to ensure high precision in signal analysis.
- Displayed Average Noise Level (DANL): overall -140 dBm or better to detect and measure weak signals accurately.
