Burst Pulse Measurements
Microwave (burst) pulse measurements are available on channel 3 Option 106
(6 GHz Microwave Input) or Option 115 (15 GHz Microwave Input) with pulse
measurement Option 150.
The pulse measurements covered in this section include: burst carrier fre-
quency, pulse repetition interval (PRI), pulse repetition frequency (PRF), posi-
tive (on) width, and negative (off) width. Figure 3-13 identifies these
measurements within a burst signal.
NOTE
The SCPI commands listed in these examples are provided as an introduction to
how measurements involving microwave pulses are made. Commands may be
included even though they specify default values - but which should be consid-
ered when modifying the examples for actual use. Refer to the ‘Programmer’s Ref-
erence’ on the Agilent 53210A/53220A/53230A Product Reference CD for
additonal information.
For further information on microwave measurements, see Application Note 200-1
“Fundamentals of Microwave Frequency Counters” also included on the CD.
