Generating a Modulated Signal
Generating a Modulated Signal
To simplify the example, assume you wish to generate an
amplitude modulated (AM) signal with a:
•
Carrier frequency of 900 MHz
•
Carrier power level of –20.0 dBm
•
AM depth of 60%
Setting up carrier frequency and amplitude
Setting up Amplitude Modulation
Operation
Notes
1
. Press
hardkey.
Sets the signal generator to its
factory-defined instrument state.
2
. Press
>
900
>
MHz

900 MHz
for amplitude modulation.
3
. Press
>–20
>
dBm
Sets the carrier amplitude to
–20 dBm
for amplitude modulation.
Operation
