Chapter 6 Operations and Measurements
FFT
The FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) operation can transform time domain signals to
frequency domain signals (frequency spectrum). FFT operation can facilitate the
following works:
MSO4000/DS4000 provides the FFT operation function which enables users to view
the time domain signal and frequency spectrum at the same time, as shown in the
figure below.
