Question:

Spectrum Analyzer Calibration A certain spectrum analyzer measures the average power delivered to a calibrated resistor by the individual harmonics of periodic waveforms. The calibration of the analyzer has been checked by applying a 1-MHz square wave and the following results reported f ðMHzÞ 1 3 5 7 9 11 PðdBmÞ 12:1 2:56 1:88 4:80 6:98 8:73 The reported power in dBm is P ¼ 10 Log(Pn), where Pn is the average power delivered by the nth harmonic in mW. Is the spectrum analyzer correctly calibrated? (note: dbm is the power ratio of the output relative to a 1mW input.)
