The sampling time depends on the selected frequency offset range and the number of samples taken
(oversampling factor, RBW). With increasing RBW the ability to distinguish spurious in frequency gets
lost, but sampling time decreases. The number of measurement points per trace varies depending on
the selected oversampling factor.
The post-processing time is used to post-process and visualize the measured data. While this
portion may be considerable for the SERIES 7000 and SERIES 7000, it can be almost
neglected for the other systems. The post-processing time depends on the computer
performance, on which the remote client software is running and the interface between
SERIES 7000 and PC. LAN is generally faster than USB.
The typical measurement times per average/correlation (includes sampling and post-processing time,
oversampling factor=1) is shown in Table 3.
