Members
| Name | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| IQ | 0 | Measurement analyzes the acquired I+jQ data, resulting generally in a spectrum that is not symmetric around 0 Hz. Spectrum trace result contains both positive and negative frequencies. Since the RMS power of the complex envelope is 3.01 dB higher than that of its equivalent real RF signal, the spectrum trace result of the acquired I+jQ data is scaled by -3.01 dB. |
| IOnly | 1 | Measurement ignores the Q data from the acquired I+jQ data and analyzes I+j0, resulting in a spectrum that is symmetric around 0 Hz. Spectrum trace result contains positive frequencies only. Spectrum of I+j0 data is scaled by +3.01 dB to account for the power of the negative frequencies that are not returned in the spectrum trace. |
| QOnly | 2 | Measurement ignores the I data from the acquired I+jQ data and analyzes Q+j0, resulting in a spectrum that is symmetric around 0 Hz. Spectrum trace result contains positive frequencies only. Spectrum of Q+j0 data is scaled by +3.01 dB to account for the power of the negative frequencies that are not returned in the spectrum trace. |
