Trace Detection Mode
Each time the spectrum analyzer samples data
for each point on the trace, a number of samples
are usually taken for each point, known as a
sample bucket. The actual value of each point is
determined by the detector from the samples in
each bucket.
Each selected trace, (1, 2, 3, 4), can use a
different detection mode.
Automatically chooses an
appropriate mode based on the
values of all the samples.
While the signal level is
constantly increasing or
decreasing, the positive peaks
are detected. Otherwise, the
detection mode switches
between positive peak and
negative peaks. Useful for
picking up burst phenomenon
while avoiding excessive noise.
Detects positive peak signals
by selecting the maximum peak
value for each point from each
bucket. This mode is useful for
sinusoidal signals.
