Tracking Drifting Signals
This section provides information on measuring and tracking
signals that drift in frequency.
Measuring a Source’s Frequency Drift
The analyzer will measure source stability. The maximum
amplitude level and the frequency drift of an input signal
trace can be displayed and held by using the maximum hold
function. Using the maximum hold function you can measure
and determine how much of the frequency spectrum a signal
occupies. For more information, refer to
Use signal tracking to return a signal drifting in frequency
to the center of the display. The drifting is captured by the
analyzer using the maximum hold function.
1
Connect the signal generator to the analyzer
