SamplesPerPoint Property
Sets the number of amplitude and phase measurements
(samples) that are taken at each measurement wavelength
(trace point).
In Swept measurement mode, the recovered modulation
amplitude and phase are sampled periodically as the
wavelength is swept. As a result, the wavelength resolution of
the measurement is limited by wavelength range/(number of
points per sweep – 1). Note that wavelength resolution is also
affected by the modulation frequency.
In Stepped measurement mode, you select how many samples to
take at each measurement wavelength. The multiple samples are
averaged to generate a single trace point. A larger number of
points means more averaging, suitable for reducing trace noise
in cases of high insertion loss test devices.
Property Value
Integer - The number of samples to take at each point.
