Notches and their effects on the measurement results
You can select from an automatic measurement mode that selects the integration
bandwidth automatically, and a manual measurement mode that allows you to define a
custom integration bandwidth.
In automatic measurement mode, the power within the notches is deducted from the
total noise power density.

Figure 7-39: Auto mode: Integration bandwidth = channel bandwidth (notches deducted)
In manual measurement, however, the notch power is not deducted. In manual mode,
the application simply integrates all measured powered levels over the integration
bandwidth, including the power levels measured within the notches.

Overlapping notches or notches outside the channel bandwidth
Note that measurement results can become inaccurate when notches overlap or lie
outside of the channel bandwidth.
NPR measurements with signal generator control
To test the NPR of a satellite channel with multiple notch filters using a signal genera-
tor, you must configure the same settings on the analyzer and on the generator. The

FSW can now take control of the connected generator, so that you only need to
