Equals the sum of reference level accuracy plus the scale fidelity
Accuracy
between the reference level and the reference line level.

For total signal power of
c-40
dBm at the input mixer of the
analyzer, all image and out-of-band mixing responses, harmonic and
intermodulation distortion products are
>75
dB
below the total signal
power for input signals 10 MHz to 1500 MHz,
>70
dB
below the total
signal power with input signals
~10
MHz.
Input mixer level is defined as the input attenuation subtracted from
the total signal power at the input connector.

For typical second and third order distortion characteristics, see
Figure 4-4 in Chapter 4, “Performance Characteristics.”
Dynamic range due to Third Order Intermodulation Distortion and
noise level can be calculated from
2/3
[TOI
-
displayed average noise
level]. For example, at 900 MHz the analyzer’s specified dynamic
range when using the 10 Hz resolution BW is:
2/3
[ + 10 dBm
-
(-135
dBm)]
=
2/3(145)
= 96.7
dB.
Two-tone intermodulation distortion products can be calculated from
2(TOI
-
signal level). For example, for two tones at -30 dBm, the
intermodulation products for a
+5
dBm TO1 will be:
2[

Residual Responses
Residual responses are signals generated by the analyzer independent
of input signals.
