The spectrum of a pulsed signal in the frequency domain has a sin(x)/x envelope, where x is
proportional to the duty cycle. The spectral components are equidistant with a spacing of
1/PRP. The analyzer measures and displays the pulses in time domain. To be detected
properly, the pulse width must be larger than twice the rise/fall time of the receiver, which
roughly corresponds to the inverse of the IF bandwidth. The figure below shows a rectangular
pulse with a width of 1 μs, measured in a 10 MHz bandwidth. The rise and fall times are
approximately 100 ns.
Pulse Profile activates pulsed measurements.
Define Pulse Profile... gives access to the time parameters, the stimulus signal settings, and the
receiver settings for pulsed measurements.
Show Pulse Profile Settings opens a screen with an overview of the current settings.
