Using Real-Time Phase Noise Impairment Softkeys
Using Real-Time Phase Noise Impairment Softkeys
This feature lets you degrade the phase noise performance of the signal generator by controlling
two frequency points and an amplitude value. The signal generator adds this phase noise to the
phase noise normally produced by the signal generator. This feature appears in each of the arb
formats and as a stand–alone menu. While the following figure shows how to access the controls
using both the stand–alone menu and the Dual ARB player, the location and softkeys within each
arb format is the same as for the Dual ARB player.

The end frequency for the flat
mid–frequency characteristics.
The start frequency for the flat
mid–frequency characteristics.
For details on each key, use key help
as described on page56.
The display updates even
when the feature is off.
For an explanation on these
settings see
“Phase Noise Shape and
Additive Phase Noise
Impairments” on page333

The amplitude for the flat mid–
frequency characteristics.
(Lmid stands for the level
amplitude of the mid–frequency
characteristic.)
NOTE: The phase noise impairment is added to the base phase noise of
the signal generator.

Use to add phase noise to the
CW output without having to
play a waveform.
