The quick sweep test analysis of row ultra broadband full frequency band.Further, this spread spectrum scheme needs to utilize the inside basis of signal/spectrum analyzer
Shake signal, and is controlled by signal/spectrum analyzer special software of outfit, it is desirable to spread spectrum module and signal/spectrum analysis
Instrument must be compatible with, if spread spectrum module and signal/spectrum analyzer are not same producers, or the product of producer's different times
Product, it is possible to existing cannot the problem of connecting test.Subband scheme is not configured to filter mirror image, the spurious response such as multiple
Preselector, host software algorithm or secondary calculating method can only be used to carry out image frequency, the identification of multiple parasitic signal, reduce
Signal measurement precision and measuring speed.
