Step 4. Change the resolution bandwidth (RBW) to 100 kHz so that the RBW
setting is less than or equal to the frequency separation of the two
signals:
Press
BW/Avg, Res BW, 100, kHz.
Notice that the peak of the signal has become flattened indicating that
two signals may be present.
Step 5. Decrease the video bandwidth to 10 kHz:
Press
Video BW, 10, kHz.
Two signals are now visible as shown with the ESA on the left side in
Figure 2-8 and the PSA on the right side. Use the front-panel knob or
step keys to further reduce the resolution bandwidth and better resolve
the signals.
