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 amplitudemodulated (AM) signals.
Deviation
of
frequency-modulated
(FM)
signals.
Noise such as impulse and random noise.
Filter frequency response.

If the nonlinearity of the circuit is significant. the
modulation of the higher-frequency signal by the lowerfrequency signal will produce the familiar amplitude
modulation waveform as shown in Fig13. The per
centage of intermodulation distortion is computed as

x 100%
M m
where
IMD = the intermodulation distortion expressed as a
percentage
M = the peak-to-peak modulated signal
m
= the minimum value of the modulated waveform
