4.4.1 Offset Sweep

Offset sweep is the frequency difference of the signal generator from the sweep frequency of the PSA. One
application for offset sweep is testing mixer conversion loss. The Analyzer sweep frequencies are offset by
the value of the LO frequency.
The example below shows the testing of the upper sideband (USB) mixing product. An example of a test
setup for measuring the lower sideband (LSB) mixing product can be found in
