Chapter 2 — Performance Verification 1
2-1 Introduction
This chapter contains test procedures that can be used to verify the Spectrum Analyzer functions of
Spectrum Master Model MS2721B. Blank performance verification test records are provided in Appendix A.
Make a copies of the blank test records and use them to record measured values.
2-2 Spectrum Analyzer Function Verification
This part of the Performance Verification chapter contains instructions to verify Spectrum Analyzer functions
in the Anritsu Spectrum Master Model MS2721B. These tests include:
• Spectrum Analyzer Frequency Accuracy
• Spectrum Analyzer Internal Reference Frequency Adjustment
• Spectrum Analyzer SSB Phase Noise Verification
• Spectrum Analyzer Resolution Bandwidth Accuracy
• Spectrum Analyzer Second Harmonic Distortion
• Spectrum Analyzer Third Order Intercept (TOI) Verification
• Spectrum Analyzer Displayed Average Noise Level (DANL)
• Spectrum Analyzer Residual Spurious Response
• Input Related Spurious (IRS) Signals
• Spectrum Analyzer Absolute Amplitude Accuracy
• Spectrum Analyzer RF Input VSWR Verification
Note Allow all instruments to warm up to typical operating temperature before taking test readings.
