Question

How many types of analyzers are there?

Answer 1

1. An instrument that is used to analyze waves in the frequency domain is called a spectrum analyzer.
2. This instrument is basically the energy distribution of a signal on a cathode ray tube screen.
3. Spectrum: A Spectrum analyzer measures the magnitude of an input signal versus frequency within the instrument's total frequency.

• Spectrum analyzers are divided into two categories. The two types are a swept-tuned analyzer and a real-time analyzer.
• A swept analyzer is a test instrument’s traditional form. They are also called analog spectrum analyzers. These swept-tuned analyzers are usually used for analyzing the signals that are in the RF range.
• The real-time spectrum analyzer is used for analyzing the signals of the AF range. This real-time spectrum is also called a filter bank spectrum analyzer. The real-time analyzer will display the energy at all the frequency components simultaneously.
