spectrum Analyzer

SPECTRUM ANALYZERS The problems associated with non-real-time analysis in the frequency domain can be eliminated by using a spectrum analyzer. A spectrum analyzer is a real-time analyzer, which means that it simultaneously displays the ampli­tude of all the signals in the frequency range of the analyzer. Spectrum analyzers, like wave analyzers, provide information about the voltage or energy of a signal as a function of frequency. Unlike wave analyzers. spectrum analyzers provide a graphical display on a CRT. A block diagram of an audio spectrum analyzer is shown in Fig.7.

SPECTRUM ANALYZERS The problems associated with non-real-time analysis in the frequency domain can be eliminated by using a spectrum analyzer. A spectrum analyzer is a real-time analyzer, which means that it simultaneously displays the ampli­tude of all the signals in the frequency range of the analyzer. Spectrum analyzers, like wave analyzers, provide information about the voltage or energy of a signal as a function of frequency. Unlike wave analyzers. spectrum analyzers provide a graphical display on a CRT. A block diagram of an audio spectrum analyzer is shown in Fig. 7.

SPECTRUM ANALYZERS The real-time, or multichannel. analyzer is basically a set of stagger-tuned bandpass filters connected through an electronic scan switch to a CRT. The composite amplitude of the signal within each filters bandwidth is displayed as a function of the overall frequency range of the filter. Therefore, the frequency range of the instrument is limited by the number of filters and their bandwidth. The electronic switch sequentially connects the filter outputs to the CRT.

SPECTRUM ANALYZERS Horizontal deflection is obtained from the scan generator, which has a saw tooth output that is synchronized with the electronic switch. Fig. 7 Block diagram of an audio spectrum analyzer.

SPECTRUM ANALYZERS Such analyzers are usually restricted to audio-frequency applications and may employ as many as 32 filters. The bandwidth of each filter is generally made very narrow for good resolution. The relationship between a time-domain presentation on the CRT of an oscilloscope and a frequency-domain presentation on the CRT of a spectrum analyzer is shown in the three- dimensional drawing in Fig8.

SPECTRUM ANALYZERS Figure.8a shows a fundamental frequency f 1 and its second harmonic 2f 1. An oscillo­scope used to display the signal in the time-amplitude domain would display only one waveform- the composite of f 1 + 2f 1 as shown in Fig. 8b. A spec­trum analyzer used to display the components of the composite signal in the frequency-amplitude domain would clearly display the amplitude of both the fundamental frequency f 1 and its second harmonic 2f 1 as shown in Fig.8c.

SPECTRUM ANALYZERS Spectrum analyzers are used to obtain a wide variety of information from various kinds of signals, including the following. Spectral purity of continuous-wave (CW) signals. Percentage of modulation of amplitude-modulated (AM) signals. Deviation of frequency-modulated (FM) signals. Noise such as impulse and random noise. Filter frequency response.

SPECTRUM ANALYZERS waveform is applied to the amplifier. The output of the amplifier is applied directly to the distortion analyzer which measures the total harmonic distortion. In the field of microwave communications, in which pulsed oscillators are widely used. spectrum analyzers are an important tool. They also find wide application in analyzing the performance of AM and FM transmitters. Spectrum analyzers and Fourier analyzers are widely used in applications requiring very low frequencies in the fields of biomedical electronics, geolog­ical surveying. and oceanography. They are also used in analyzing air and water pollution.

SPECTRUM ANALYZERS Another very important application of spectrum analyzers is the measure­ment of intermodulation distortion. This phenomenon occurs when two or more signals are applied to the input of a nonlinear circuit such as an amplifier. particularly a power amplifier. This problem is particularly trouble­some in the reproduction of music. If these signals are applied to a completely linear circuit. each passes through the circuit unaffected by the other. However, if there is nonlinearity in the circuit. heterodyning of the signals occurs.

SPECTRUM ANALYZERS Limiting our discussion to two signals. we find that heterodyning occurs because the lower-frequency signal tends to modulate the higher-frequency signal.

SPECTRUM ANALYZERS If f1, and f2 are the fundamental frequencies of the input signals. the output spectrum may contain any or all of the frequencies shown in Fig.12, as well as other harmonics. Fig. 12 Some of the harmonics of f 1 and f 2 produced by amplifier nonlinearity.

SPECTRUM ANALYZERS Fig. 13 Amplitude-modulated waveform pro­duced by intermodulation distortion.

SPECTRUM ANALYZERS If the nonlinearity of the circuit is significant. the modulation of the higher-frequency signal by the lower-frequency signal will produce the familiar amplitude modulation waveform as shown in Fig13. The per­centage of intermodulation distortion is computed as where IMD = the intermodulation distortion expressed as a percentage M = the peak-to-peak modulated signal m= the minimum value of the modulated waveform

SPECTRUM ANALYZERS The spectrum analyzer can be used to measure the intermodulation distor­tion, as shown in the circuit in Fig14. The frequency of the audio oscillator is generally set to 6 kHz. Fig.14 Using the spectrum analyzer to measure intermodulation dis­tortion.
