The following application note may be of special interest and use for
your product:
• Spectrum Analysis AM and FM (Application Note 150-1)
You can download this application note at: http://www.agilent.com
This application note discusses the measurement of amplitude and
frequency modulated signals using a spectrum analyzer. The basic
theory behind AM and FM modulation including time and frequency
domain representations is presented. For AM signals, various
techniques for measuring the degree of modulation, such as fast Fourier
transforms, are described. For FM signals, techniques for calculating
and measuring the frequency bandwidth are outlined. In an appendix,
a detailed mathematical treatment of modulation is presented along
with a phasor description of AM and FM modulated signals. This
application note contains more than 60 online pages, more than 60
analyzer screen-captures, zoomable illustrations, photographs, and four
QuickTime signal animations.
