I/Q Diagram
The I/Q diagram displays the inphase component (i[t]) and quadrature component (q[t])
of the I/Q signal over time.
Figure 7-1: I/Q diagram with markers
= window with two separate coordinate systems with identical X and Y axes
X-axis = time represented as number of symbols, chips, or samples depending on the signal
Y-axis = amplitude, scaled to the peak envelope power; where minimum scaled amplitude = -1, maximum
scaled amplitude = +1
Application: To analyze impairments, added noise and signals (e.g. from external
baseband input) in the time domain. This mode shows the signal like an oscilloscope.
Signal acquisition points: See Table 7-2.
Vector Diagram
The vector diagram displays the Q component over the I component. All points in the
complex domain are connected by lines.
