Measurement of carrier frequency of modulated waves using a spectrum analyzer.

[Application Example] We will introduce a method for calculating the carrier frequency of modulated waves using our spectrum analyzer.

Typically, when measuring frequency, instruments such as frequency counters are used. However, when measuring the carrier frequency of modulated waves (such as QPSK or ASK), the presence of mixed frequencies near the carrier frequency makes it impossible to accurately measure the carrier frequency with a frequency counter. Particularly in the case of modulated waves used in communication, any deviation in the carrier frequency can lead to communication errors, making the accurate measurement of the carrier frequency a critical issue. By using our spectrum analyzer, this problem can be resolved. It is possible to directly measure the spectrum of the modulated wave and accurately calculate the carrier frequency through simple analysis based on the results. 【Product Introduction】 ■ Spectrum Analyzer MSA458 *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us. 【System Configuration】 ■ Spectrum Analyzer MSA458 *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
