4.2.9
Pulse Modulation On/Off Ratio Test
Specification
On/Off Ratio:
>80 dB
Description
The GT 9000 is set to a CW frequency at a power level of 0 dBm. A spectrum analyzer is used
to view the signal. The pulse modulation is then enabled and the resulting waveform is
measured.
Procedure
1.
Connect the equipment as shown in the figure. Allow 20 minutes warm-up time.
2.
Press [SHIFT] [RESET] on the UUT and enter the first frequency on the test data sheet
which is within the frequency range of the instrument. The RF power level should be at
0 dBm.
3.
Tune the analyzer to the source frequency, select an analyzer span of 0 Hz, and fine tune
the analyzer to place the line at the top of the screen graticule (adjust analyzer reference
level as needed).
4.
Set the pulse modulation on the UUT as follows: Press [PM] [RATE] [100] [HZ]
[WIDTH] [5] [MS] to establish a 100 Hz squarewave.
5.
Adjust the analyzer sweep time to display a few cycles of the waveform. Use internal
triggering. Reduce resolution bandwidth and carefully retune the analyzer center
frequency until the maximum resolution is achieved. Read and record the peak-to-peak
value (use marker delta).
6.
Repeat steps 3 to 5 for all other Test Data Sheet frequencies which are within the range
of the instrument. Note that the dynamic range of the analyzer may limit its
measurement capability.
Equipment Required
