The measurement is triggered according to the current trigger settings (see
on page 407). Each trigger event triggers the first partial
measurement of a measurement point. The time interval between two consecutive
measurements depends on the trigger settings and the sweep parameters (especially
the number of points). Any trigger mode is allowed.
A "CW Mode" sweep corresponds to the analysis of a signal over the time with a time
scale and resolution that is determined by the trigger events. In a Cartesian diagram,
the measurement result is displayed as a trace over a linear time scale (like, e.g., in an
oscilloscope). The diagram is similar to the "Time" diagram. The following example
shows a "CW Mode" sweep with a DUT that does not markedly change its transmis-
sion characteristics over the time.
Tip: Sweep time
The time interval between two consecutive trigger pulses must not be smaller than the
minimum measurement time per measurement point. See

Time
"Time" sweeps, like
sweeps, are performed at constant frequency and stim-
ulus power, which can be specified in the "Stimulus" settings (see
on page 384). A single sweep extends over a specified period of time,
defined via the "Stop Time" setting. The time intervals between two consecutive sweep
points are calculated according to "Stop Time"/(n - 1) where n is the selected
.
A "Time" sweep corresponds to the analysis of a signal over the time; the function of
the analyzer is analogous to an oscilloscope. In a Cartesian diagram, the measure-
ment result is displayed as a trace over a linear time scale. The following example
shows a "Time" sweep with a DUT that does not markedly change its transmission
characteristics over the time.
