Measuring the Bandwidth of the IF Outputs
This test measures the PSA's IF Outputs (standard 321.4 MHz and IF Output options)
amplitude response as a function of frequency (bandwidth). A signal is applied to the PSA
at 950 MHz to 1050 MHz. The 321.4 MHz If Output and 21.4 MHz IF Output bandwidth
are measured using a test spectrum analyzer.
1. While the spectrum analyzer is still connected to the 321.4 MHz IF Output connector on
the rear panel of the PSA, configure the PSA and test equipment as follows:

Attenuation Choose 0 dB since this
setting will determine what
the IF output level is, with
respect to the input signal.
