8. Noise Sidebands - Wide Offsets: Agilent

A 1 GHz CW signal is applied to the input of the analyzer. The marker

functions are used to measure the amplitude of the carrier and the

noise level at 100 kHz, 1 MHz, 5 MHz, and 10 MHz above and below the

carrier.

There are no related adjustment procedures for this performance test.

Equipment Required

Wide offset phase noise signal generator

Cable, Type-N, 152-cm (60-in)

Additional Equipment for Option BAB

Adapter, Type-N (f), to APC 3.5 (f)

Figure 2-8 Noise Sidebands Test Setup

Procedure

This performance test consists of four parts:

Part 1: Noise Sideband Suppression at 100 kHz

Part 2: Noise Sideband Suppression at 1 MHz

Part 3: Noise Sideband Suppression at 5 MHz

Part 4: Noise Sideband Suppression at 10 MHz

Perform part 1 before performing parts 2-4 of this procedure.

A worksheet is provided at the end of this procedure for calculating the
