24. Non-Harmonic Spurious Outputs,
Options 1DN and 1DQ
The tracking generator output is connected to the input of a microwave
spectrum analyzer. The tracking generator is set to several different
output frequencies.
For each output frequency, several sweeps are taken on the microwave
spectrum analyzer over different frequency spans and the highest
displayed spurious response is measured in each span. Responses at
the fundamental frequency of the tracking generator output or their
harmonics are ignored. The amplitude of the highest spurious response
is recorded.
There are no related adjustments for this performance test.
