4.6 SPECTRUM ANALYSIS
A spectrum analysis measures the magnitude of an input signal versus frequency within the full frequency range of the
instrument. The primary use is to measure the power of the spectrum of known and unknown signals/channels. In addition to
display the frequency spectrum of the target channels by utilizing the strong point of wide span, a real-time spectrum
analysis can help with most modern RF measurement challenges, like: discovery of rare, short deration events; seeing weak
signals masked by stronger ones; observing signals masked by noise, finding and analyzing transient and dynamic signals;
capturing burst transmissions, glitches, switching transients…etc.
