Operating the instrument
You can operate the R&S
FE50DTR in single receive mode (Rx), single transmit
mode (Tx) or simultaneous mode. In simultaneous mode, the R&S
FE50DTR
operates in Rx and Tx mode simultaneously also referring to dual transmit receive
6.1
Operating the R&S
FE50DTR in Rx mode
In Rx mode, the R&S
FE50DTR receives a high-frequency RF signal from the
device under test (DUT). It downconverts this signal using its own internal local
oscillator to an intermediate frequency (IF) signal that is a low-frequency signal.
The R&S
FE50DTR outputs and transmits the IF signal to the vector signal ana-
lyzer.
