I/Q Gain
Lets you adjust the ratio of I to Q while preserving the composite, vector magnitude.
Adding Gain (+x dB) to the signal increases the I component and decreases the Q
component proportionally. Reducing Gain (-x dB) decreases the I component and
increases the Q component proportionally.
Remote Command
:SOURce:RADio:ARB:IQADjustment:GAIN <value><unit>
:SOURce:RADio:ARB:IQADjustment:GAIN?
Example
:SOUR:RAD:ARB:IQAD:GAIN 0.5
:SOUR:RAD:ARB:IQAD:GAIN?
Notes Effective only if the I/Q adjustment function is ON
Dependencies Unavailable and grayed-out when the ARB state is OFF
Not available in E7760B
Preset +0.00000000E+000
Min -1 dB
Max 1 dB
I/Q Delay
Lets you change the absolute phase of both I and Q with respect to triggers and
markers. A positive value delays I and Q. This value affects both the external I/Q out
signals and the baseband signal modulated on the RF output. This adjustment does
not affect external I/Q inputs.
Remote Command
:SOURce:RADio:ARB:IQADjustment:DELay <value><unit>
:SOURce:RADio:ARB:IQADjustment:DELay?
Example
:SOUR:RAD:ARB:IQAD:DEL 10ps
:SOUR:RAD:ARB:IQAD:DEL?
Notes User-set IQ delay time values are rounded to the nearest integer multiple of the resolution
Dependencies Unavailable and grayed-out when the ARB state is off
