Transducers

Basics on Transducer Factors
The transducer allows you to manipulate the trace at discrete trace points to correct
the signal coming from an input device. Transducers are often used to correct the fre-
quency response for antennas, for example. The transducer is configured by defining
transducer factors for specific trace points. A set of transducer factors defines an inter-
polated transducer line and can be stored on the instrument.
In the Spectrum application, the correction factor from all active transducers is calcula-
ted for each displayed trace point once in advance and is added to the result of the
level measurement during the sweep. If the sweep range changes, the correction val-
ues are calculated again. If several measured values are combined in one point, only
one value is taken into consideration. If the active transducer line is not defined for the
entire sweep range, the missing values are replaced by zeroes.
When a transducer is used, the trace is shifted by a calculated factor. However, an
upward shift reduces the dynamic range for the displayed values. Thus, the reference
