Restrictions and conditions
The following conditions and restrictions apply to auto measurements:
●
The currently configured center frequency or start or stop frequencies are ignored
●
Search limits are not taken into account
●
Only RF input is considered, no external mixer or baseband input
●
Only single-carrier signals are detected
●
Signals must have a contiguous spectrum. Signals with gaps in the spectrum are
not detected correctly.
●
Minimum signal-to-noise ratio: 20
dB
●
Minimum signal bandwidth: 100
kHz
●
Maximum signal bandwidth: 100
MHz
●
Maximum pulse repetition interval: 10
ms
For measurement-specific restrictions and conditions, refer to the individual measure-
ment function descriptions.

Basic Measurements
Basic measurements are common sweeps in the time or frequency domain which pro-
vide an overview of the basic input signal characteristics.
If no other measurement function is selected, or if all measurement functions are
switched off, the R&S
FSV/A performs a basic frequency or time sweep.
After a preset, a frequency sweep is performed.
Use the general measurement settings to configure the measurement, e.g. via the
"Overview" (see
Chapter 8, "Common Measurement Settings"
7.2.1
Basic Measurement Types
Frequency Sweep
A common frequency sweep of the input signal over a specified span. Can be used for
general purposes to obtain basic measurement results such as peak levels and spec-
trum traces. The "Frequency" menu is displayed. This is the default measurement if no
other function is selected.
Use the general measurement settings to configure the measurement, e.g. via the
"Overview" (see
Chapter 8, "Common Measurement Settings"
Note:
function to determine the required frequency span automati-
cally. The span is set to the determined signal bandwidth plus an additional margin of
40
%.
