*Application Reference

1. Measure a single signal

The spectrum analyzer could be used to measure a Sine, including frequency, amplitude, harmonic and spurious.

Figure.1. measure a single signal by spectrum analyzer

2. Analyze AM and FM signal characteristics

Measure an AM signal and user could observe the frequency and amplitude of modulated carrier and the frequency and modulation depth of AM signal.

Figure 2

From Figure 2 user can observe the result for AM signal, that modulated carrier is 20MHz, carrier amplitude is -14.41dBm, the frequency is 30kHz and modulation depth is 50%.

The measurement for a FM signal is same as AM signal, the carrier frequency, the frequency of modulation signal and frequency offset could be observed directly.

3. Measure phase noise

The spectrum analyzers in current market are all available on this function and common difference value method is used to calculate the result. For example, to measure the phase noise if a 100MHz signal offset 10KHz.

Firstly set the central frequency of spectrum analyzer to 100MHz, span to 30KHz, analysis bandwidth to 100Hz. Then move Marker to peak point of 100MHz, open the function of marker difference value and input difference frequency 10KHz and readout this difference value △A. Then use the formula phase noise=△A-10㏒RBW to calculate.

4. Served as simple network analyzer

The spectrum analyzer with tracking generator can be served as scalar network analyzer.

For example, use spectrum analyzer to measure S21 of filter. Connect the output port of tracking generator with input end of measured filter and the other output end of filter with RF input of spectrum analyzer, then the S21 of filter could be measured like below picture shown.
