The vector signal analyzer (VSA) is a tool that can perform many of the same measurement and characterization tasks that the spectrum analyzer (SA) can, but it can also perform many more digital demodulation functions.

The SA and VSA operate in different manners. These operational differences can result in measurement errors if these differences aren't properly considered while making a measurement.
