7 Common Analysis and Display Functions
General methods and basic settings to display and analyze measurements, regardless
of the operating mode, are described here. If you are using an application other than
the phase noise application, be sure to check the documentation for that application.
The settings can deviate from the common settings described here.

7.1 Result Display Configuration
Measurement results can be evaluated in many different ways, for example graphically,
as summary tables, statistical evaluations. Thus, the result display is highly configura-
ble to suit your specific requirements and optimize analysis. Here you can find out how
to optimize the display for your measurement results.

7.1.1 Basic Result Displays
Measurement results can be displayed and evaluated using various different methods,
also at the same time. Depending on the currently selected measurement, in particular
when using optional firmware applications, not all evaluation methods are available.
The result displays described here are available for most measurements in the phase
noise application.
7.1.2 Laying out the Result Display with the SmartGrid
Measurement results can be evaluated in many different ways, for example graphically,
as summary tables, statistical evaluations etc. Each type of evaluation is displayed in a
separate window in the channel tab. Up to 16 individual windows can be displayed per
channel (i.e. per tab). To arrange the diagrams and tables on the screen, the Rohde &
Schwarz SmartGrid function helps you find the target position simply and quickly.
Principally, the layout of the windows on the screen is based on an underlying grid, the
SmartGrid. However, the SmartGrid is dynamic and flexible, allowing for many different
layout possibilities. The SmartGrid functionality provides the following basic features:
●
Windows can be arranged in columns or in rows, or in a combination of both.
●
Windows can be arranged in up to four rows and four columns.
