Advantages of the timing offset correction: 
 No jitter with low sampling rates 
 With one sample per zero, the trespassing point is always a sample in the middle of the bit length. 
Therefore the maximum values in the frequency deviation of 0101 bit patterns can be detected 
precisely also with low sampling rates. 
 The immunity to interference when determining the data bits is improved. 
 Higher suppression of the distortion during peak detection. 
Determining Average or Max/Min Values 
These functions are very useful in order to obtain more stable results or to find sporadic spurious 
signals not included in every burst. In many cases the RF Test Specification defines measurements 
over a 10 burst period. 
The number of measurements can be selected using sweep count function, thus adapting the 
measurement to the individual requirements. 
In single sweep mode, the calculation of average or maximum / minimum values is performed over a 
well–defined number of sweeps (= sweep count). 
Continuous sweep mode yields continuous averaging and calculation of maximum / minimum values 
over the whole measurement time. 
Modulation measurements  
They are performed in the Clear Write trace mode. 
In continuous sweep mode, a "live" display is obtained, which allows e.g. an instant view of changes 
during alignment of a DUT. 
In single sweep mode and with the sweep count set to 10, the spectrum analyzer will evaluate 10 bursts 
as required by the RF Test Specification. This means that a result is obtained after exactly 10 bursts. 
Power measurements  
They are performed in the Maxhold trace mode in relation with the defined measurement time. The 
measurement time is selected in order to make sure that always one complete burst is acquired. In this 
case, several sweeps are combined to one trace before this result trace is evaluated.
