Spectrum Monitor
The scrolling three- dimensional display is noted for
its ability to track the frequency and power
behavior over the time, particularly intermittent
signals. Spectrum Monitor may be used to analyze
the stability of a signal over the time, or to identify
intermittent interference signals in communications
systems.
The X- axis represents frequency, and amplitude is
represented by color; red for a strong signal and
blue for noise floor. The Y- axis represents time,
with the trace from the newest sweep displayed at
the bottom of the screen. Earlier traces move up
toward the top with each new sweep. Two coupled
markers allow the user to place a marker on any
trace in the Spectrum Monitor and view the
normal spectrum for the time of that sweep. The
time interval between sweeps can be adjusted, and
up to 1500 traces can be displayed and saved.
