5.3.4 Harmonic Distortion
The measurement for tracking generator harmonic spurious outputs.
The tracking generator output is connected to the input of a spectrum analyzer, then set to several different
frequencies as the amplitude of the second harmonics relative to the fundamental is measured at each fre-
quency.
Specification:
≤-20 dBc (output level -10 dBm)
