Chapter 3 Functions of the Front Panel of
RTSA
RTSA contains the digital IF component that has a strong processing capability. In
real-time mode, all signal samples are processed to produce measurement results or
initiate a trigger. In most cases, like the frequency swept analysis, the real-time
analysis produces scalar results, such as power or amplitude.
RTSA has the following features:
Seamless capture and analysis;
High-speed measurement;
Stable and consistent measurement speed;
Frequency mask trigger;
Diversified and advanced composite display
In general, the high-speed data stream in real-time mode can be used in the
following two ways: to be served as the data source of composite spectrum display
or be compared with the frequency mask to produce the frequency mask trigger.
This chapter describes in detail the function keys on the front panel and their
associated menu functions in RTSA.
Note: The keys or menus that have the same functions as those in GPSA will not be
described in this chapter. For details, refer to the relevant contents in Chapter 2.
