Triggering in VSAs and Real Time Analyzers
IF Magnitude & Frequency Mask Triggers
Triggered Individual Measurements or Signal Captures
• Sqrt (I
2
+ Q
2
) of each
sample, is easier &
faster (VSAs)
• FFT power Spectrum
is slower but more
selective (RTSAs)
• VSA now does both
Capture
Memory
Measurements
•Short/Long Data Block
•Vector, Demodulation
