Time domain gating
You can use time domain g ating to select a specific segment of your signal for spectral analysis. Two
controls, gate position and gate duration, determine the location and size of the gate.
The resulting spectrum corresponds to the frequency components of the signal in the gated segment.
Time domain gating is inversely proportional to the resolution bandwidth of the spectral waveform. The
narrower the gate, the larger the resolution b andwidth and the lower the frequency resolution. To obtain
the best frequency resolution, use as wide a gate as possible.
