1DN or 1DQ)
47. Tracking Generator Non-Harmonic
Spurious Outputs: Agilent E4401B and E4411B
(Option 1DN or 1DQ)
This procedure determines the maximum level of the non-harmonic
spurious outputs of the tracking generator. The tracking generator
output is set to several different output frequencies. For each output
frequency, several sweeps are taken on the microwave 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 adjustment procedures for this performance test.
