“
Inverted
” means that the IF is spectrally inverted from the input (as the input
frequency goes higher, the IF goes lower).
“
Not Inverted
” means that the IF is not spectrally inverted (as the input frequency goes
higher, the IF goes higher).
You need to take frequency inversion into account when processing the IF signal. Assuming
that the IF has been processed to yield I and Q data, inversion is easily done by swapping
I and Q.
A residual frequency offset of the IF may exist compared to the RF due to the resolution of the
first and second local oscillators, as well as the calibration of the IF filters. This offset is
usually on the order of several kHz, but may be up to 10 kHz or so if the narrowest IF filters
are selected. To determine the residual offset, you need a second spectrum analyzer or a
frequency counter.
1.
Attach a signal source (or antenna) to the spectrum analyzer and set the center
frequency to the center of the signal being received.
2.
Press
BW
then
Zero Span
, and then press
Zero Span
a second time to turn on the
IF output.
3.
Attach a second spectrum analyzer to the IF output and set the center frequency to
140 MHz. Set the span of the second spectrum analyzer to 100 kHz or less to have the
resolution needed to be able to measure an offset that may be 25 kHz or less.
4.
Measure the frequency of the IF signal to see how far the signal is offset from 140 MHz.
