چکیده
This primer examines the theory of state-of-the-art spectrum analysis and describes how modern spectrum analyzers are designed and how they work. That is followed by a brief characterization of today's signal generators, which are needed as a stimulus when performing amplifier measurements.

- Techniques for Measuring Narrowband and Broadband Emi Signals Using Spectrum Analyzers
The versatility of spectrum analyzers allows electromagnetic interference (EM1) signals to be displayed in a variety of ways for the analysis of specific signal characteristics. Two signal types of particular interest are those classified as narrowband (NB) and broadband (BB) signals. These signals originate from a variety of sources and have different EMl potential. This paper first provides d...
متن کاملOptimizing On-Wafer Noise Figure Measurements up to 67 GHz
Two techniques are commonly used to measure NF: the Y-factor method and the cold-source method. The Y-factor or hot/ cold-source method is the predominant approach and is most commonly implemented with noise-figure analyzers and spectrum analyzer-based solutions. In contrast, the cold-source method is usually performed using vector network analyzers (VNAs), which provide magnitude and phase inf...

متن کاملHigh-speed Measurement Technologies of AQ6370C Optical Spectrum Analyzer
The optical spectrum measurement is indispensable to the wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology that is increasingly being used in optical communications. Optical spectrum analyzers, which measure and analyze the optical spectrum of light that travels through optical fibers, are required to have high performance, functionality, and throughput as sophisticated optical communication de...
متن کاملFast Wavelength Calibration Algorithm for Optical Spectrum Analyzers
In this paper an algorithm for fast wavelength calibration of Optical Spectrum Analyzers (OSAs) using low power reference gas spectra is proposed. In existing OSAs a reference spectrum with low noise for precise detection of the reference extreme values is needed. To generate this spectrum costly hardware with high optical power is necessary. With this new wavelength calibration algorithm it is...
