SMALL and LARGE Signals on the SAME Scale
There are two basic forms of spectrum analyzers:
•Swept tuned:is tuned by electronically sweeping its inputelectronically sweeping its input over the desired frequency range thus, the frequency components of a signal are sampled sequentially in time.
Types Of Spectrum AnalyzersTypes Of Spectrum Analyzers
Real time analyzers:They sample the total frequency range simultaneously, thus preserving the time dependency between signals. This technique allows both transient and periodic / random signals to be displayed.

InterferenceInterference
In mobile radio communications, the emitted electromagnetic waves often do not reach the receiving antenna directlydirectly due to obstaclesobstacles blocking the line-of-sight path. In fact, the received waves are a superposition of waves coming from all directions due to reflection, diffraction, and scattering caused by buildings, trees, and other obstacles. This effect is known as multipath multipath propagationpropagation.
The received signal consists an infinite sum The received signal consists an infinite sum of:of:1- 1- attenuatedattenuated 2- 2- delayeddelayed3- and 3- and phase-shiftedphase-shifted replicas of the transmitted signal, replicas of the transmitted signal, ►►► ►►► each influencing each othereach influencing each other..

Characteristics of Analog Characteristics of Analog TransmissionTransmission
Analog transmission is characterized by the following:1. Signal processing. Processing is performed on the baseband
signal before modulation and after demodulation in order to improve the quality of the link.
2. The number of communication channels supported by the carrier. In the case of a single communication channel, one refers to single channel per carrier )SCPC( transmission. Several communication channels combined by frequency division multiplexing )FDM( is referred to as FDM transmission.
3. The type of modulation used. The most widely used is FM. For this type of modulation, the carrier amplitude is not affected by the modulating signal; thus, it is robust with respect to the nonlinearities of the channel.
Typical Requirements
The signal received at the demodulator of a receiver is always accompanied by noise, including that generated in preceding stages of the receiver itself. Furthermore, there may be interfering signalsinterfering signals in the desired band that are not rejected by the bandpass filter HR)f (. Both noise and interference give rise
to undesired components at the detector output. When interference or noise is included, the contaminated signal u)t ( is given by:
Noise and Interference in Analog Transmission
Simple Interference ExampleSimple Interference Example
A sinusoidal carrier fc and an interference signal fI
Let the interference signal have amplitude Ai and frequency fc + fi . The total signal entering the demodulator is the sum of two sinusoids, given by:
Following the phasor construction:
If the interference is small compared to the carrier, thephasor diagram shows that the resultant envelope is essentially the sum of the inphase componentsinphase components, while the quadrature component determines the phase anglephase angle. That is, if Ai << A, then:
we can see that the interfering wave performs an AM modulation and phase modulation of a carrier just like a modulating tone of frequency f i with modulation index mI
