5.2.14 Accuracy of Frequency Readout and Count Frequency Marker
The accuracy of the spectrum analyzer frequency readout and count frequency marker is tested with an
input signal of known frequency.
For the points of frequencies above 5 GHz are required to tune preselector peak.
Specification:
Accuracy of Frequency Readout
±(Center Frequency × Frequency Reference Accuracy+ Frequency span × Frequency Span Accu-
racy + 0.15 × Resolution band width + 60 Hz)
Span Accuracy
±1% of Span
Accuracy of Frequency Counter Marker (Span < 200 MHz, S/N > 25 dB)
±(Marker Frequency × Frequency Reference Accuracy + 1 LSD)
