R&S ESCI
Measurement of Occupied Bandwidth
An important characteristics of a modulated signal is its occupied bandwidth. In a radio communications
system for instance the occupied bandwidth must be limited to enable distortion-free transmission in
adjacent channels. The occupied bandwidth is defined as the bandwidth containing a defined
percentage of the total transmitted power. A percentage between 10% and 99.9% can be set on the
R&S ESCI.

IEC/IEEE-bus command:
% POWER
The % POWER BANDWIDTH softkey opens the entry of the percentage of
BANDWIDTH
power related to the total power in the displayed frequency range which defines
the occupied bandwidth (percentage of total power).
The valid range of values is 10% to 99.9%.
IEC/IEEE-bus command:
The CHANNEL BANDWIDTH softkey opens an input window for defining the
CHANNEL
BANDWIDTH
channel bandwidth for the transmission channel. For measurements in line with
a specific transmission standard, the bandwidth specified by the standard for the
transmission channel must be entered.
The default setting is 14 kHz.
The specified channel bandwidth is used for optimization of the test parameters
of the R&S ESCI with ADJUST SETTINGS .

measurement of the occupied bandwidth according to the
current configuration and opens the submenu for configuring
the measurement. The softkey is available only in frequency
domain (span > 0) and is highlighted when the measurement
is switched on.
In the spectrum display mode, this measurement determines
the bandwidth that contains a predefined percentage of the
power of the displayed frequency range ( % POWER
BANDWIDTH softkey ) . The occupied bandwidth is output in
the marker display field and marked on the trace by
temporary markers.
