SIGNAL SOURCING REQUIREMENTS FOR SPECTRUM ANALYZER CALIBRATION AN INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW
P.C.T. Roberts · 2006
Calibrating a Spectrum Analyzer usually involves a variety of measurements, with each requiring a suitable input signal. A typical procedure generally utilizes a number of signal generators together with other pieces of equipment to generate the signals and ensure their accuracy. This paper provides an overview of spectrum analyzer calibration with discussion of the most common calibration tests, their signal requirements, and approaches for meeting those requirements.
