4-52 WF1943B
4.7 Equivalent noise bandwidth
The density of noise generated by the WF1943B is as shown in the following figure (a) "Frequency
characteristics of noise generated by the WF1943B."
The effective values (rms) of (a) are equal to those of white noise in the figure (b) "Frequency characteristics
of white noise," that follows. This equivalent bandwidth (500 kHz) is called the equivalent noise bandwidth.
