Changing Measurement
In averaging mode, the analyzer measures each frequency point once per

sweep and averages the current and previous trace up to the averaging factor
exponential average of consecutive sweeps weighted by the user-specified
averaging factor.
As the averaging factor is increased:

Averaging is better than system bandwidth reduction at minimizing very
