Low Noise Path Enable
Low Noise Path Enable provides a lower noise floor under some circumstances,
particularly when operating in the 21–26.5GHz region. With the Low Noise Path
enabled, the low band/high band switch and microwave preamp are bypassed
whenever all the following are true:
–
The instrument is not in the Low Band, meaning:
–
the start frequency is above 3.5GHz and
–
the stop frequency is above 3.6GHz
–
The internal preamp is not installed, or if installed, is set to Off or Low Band
Note that this means that, when any part of a sweep is done in Low Band, the Low
Noise Path is not used, whether or not the Low Noise Path Enable is selected in the
user interface. Also, if the preamp is turned on, the Low Noise Path is not used,
