Channel Bandwidth
Defines the channel bandwidth for the transmission channel in single-carrier measure-
ments. This bandwidth is used to optimize the test parameters (for details see "Adjust
Settings" on page 157). The default setting is 14 kHz.
For measurements according to a specific transmission standard, define the bandwidth
specified by the standard for the transmission channel.
For multicarrier measurements, this setting is irrelevant.
Remote command:
[SENSe:]POWer:ACHannel:BANDwidth[:CHANnel<ch>] on page 641
Adjust Settings
Optimizes the instrument settings for the measurement of the occupied bandwidth
according to the specified channel bandwidth.
This function is only useful for single carrier measurements.
All instrument settings relevant for power measurement within a specific frequency
range are optimized:
Frequency span: 3 × channel bandwidth
RBW ≤ 1/40 of channel bandwidth
VBW ≥ 3 × RBW
Detector: RMS
The reference level is not affected by "Adjust Settings". For an optimum dynamic
range,select the reference level such that the signal maximum is close to the reference
level.
(See "Setting the Reference Level Automatically (Auto Level)" on page 312).
The adjustment is carried out only once. If necessary, the instrument settings can be
changed later.
Remote command:
[SENSe:]POWer:ACHannel:PRESet on page 633
Search Limits (Left / Right)
If activated, limit lines are defined and displayed for the search. Only results within the
limited search range are considered.
For details on limit lines for searches, see "Peak search limits" on page 379.
