4.2 Measurement of Signals with Close

Resolution Bandwidth and Resolution

Range

Description of resolution bandwidth: signal resolution ability

is determined by IF filter’s bandwidth, i.e. resolution

bandwidth. When signal goes through IF filter, spectrum

analyzer sweeps band-pass shape of IF filter by signal.

Therefore, frequencies of two uniform-amplitude signals

are very close, which may cause the top of band-pass

shape swept by any signal is almost covered by the other

signal, so it seems like one signal. If two signals are not

with uniform amplitude, but their frequencies are still very

close, then small signal possibly is flooded with large signal.

Resolution bandwidth function is used to select right IF

bandwidth during measurement. We take filter’s 3dB

bandwidth as its resolution bandwidth, and the following

contents will tell you how to select right resolution

bandwidth.

4.2.1 Distinguish two signals with uniform amplitude

Generally, if you want to distinguish two signals with

uniform amplitude, resolution bandwidth must be less than
