For each displayed trace:
Mean
Mean power
Peak
Peak power
Crest
Crest factor (peak power – mean power)
10 %
10 % probability that the level exceeds mean power + [x] dB
1 %
1 % probability that the level exceeds mean power + [x] dB
0,1 %
0,1 % probability that the level exceeds mean power + [x] dB
0,01 %
0,01 % probability that the level exceeds mean power + [x] dB
Percent marker
In addition to the results for specific percentages in the table, a percent marker can be
activated for a freely selectable percentage. This marker indicates how many level val-
ues are over <x> % above the mean power.
Percent marker
As all markers, the percent marker can be moved simply by selecting it with a finger or
mouse cursor and dragging it to the desired position.
Diagram Scaling
The scaling for both the x-axis and y-axis of the statistics diagram can be configured.
In particular, you can restrict the range of amplitudes to be evaluated and the probabili-
ties to be displayed.

APD and CCDF Basics - Gated Triggering
Statistic measurements on pulsed signals can be performed using a gated trigger. An
external or power trigger is required as a time (frame) reference.
The gate ranges define the part of the measured data taken into account for the statis-
tics calculation. These ranges are defined relative to a reference point T=0. The gate
interval is repeated for each period until the end of the capture buffer.
The reference point T=0 is defined by the external trigger event and the instrument's
trigger offset.
For each trace you can define up to 3 separate ranges of a single period to be traced.
