Tip: You can change to point based x-axis to improve the display of a segmented fre-
quency sweep (see "Seg X-Axis" on page 401).

Power
In a "Power" sweep, the internal generator power is swept in dB-linear, equidistant
steps over a continuous power range. The generator power range (sweep range) and
the fixed frequency can be specified in the "Stimulus" settings (see Chapter 6.8.1,
"Stimulus Tab", on page 384).
"Power" sweeps are particularly suitable for the analysis of non-linear effects (satura-
tion, compression) on active and passive DUTs (e.g. power amplifiers, mixers).
In a Cartesian diagram, the measurement result is displayed as a trace over a dB-lin-
ear power scale. The following example shows a "Power" sweep in the source power
range between –25 dBm and 0 dBm, performed at a CW frequency of 1 GHz.

CW Mode
"CW Mode" sweeps, like Time sweeps, are performed at constant frequency and stim-
ulus power, which can be specified in the "Stimulus" settings (see Chapter 6.8.1, "Stim-
ulus Tab", on page 384).
