●
The analyzer can export the raw complex (unformatted) data or formatted data.
The unformatted data are independent of all "Smooth Shift Hold" settings; see
"Formatted Values" on page 337.
●
For complex traces, if marker format and trace format do not coincide, the marker
values are calculated before Smoothing and Hold are applied. In this case, the dis-
played marker values may not behave as expected.
Smoothing
Activates the smoothing function for the active trace, which can be a data or a memory
trace.
With smoothing active, the trace value at each sweep point is replaced by the arith-
metic mean of the trace values at the sweep point itself, and at neighboring sweep
points (symmetrically, to the left and to the right). The number of trace values to be
averaged is defined by the Aperture and can be adjusted according to the properties of
the trace.
Smoothing operates on the formatted trace and does not significantly increase the
measurement time.
Tip: The sweep average is an alternative method of compensating for random effects
on the trace by averaging consecutive traces. Compared to smoothing, the sweep
average requires a longer measurement time but does not have the drawback of aver-
aging out quick variations of the measured values.
See Chapter 6.9.3, "Average Tab", on page 389.
