Abstract: In order to easily understand the relationship between communication signals of a plurality of channels, a signal analyzer provides a display showing a stacked bar graph 100 that stacks powers of the plurality of channels in every time slot with the horizontal axis representing time. A marker 110 is displayed on the graph 100 and parameter information in the time slot corresponding to the display position of the marker 110 is also displayed in a table 112. If the display position of the marker 110 may change and the parameter information for the time slot is not displayed in the table 112, the display range of the parameters in the table 112 is changed in synchronism with the displayed marker position. Additionally, power related information of each channel in the time slot corresponding to the display position of the marker 110 may also be displayed in a display column 118.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a display for easily understanding time changes of communication conditions of channels using a plurality of sub-carriers. Layers corresponding to the plurality of channels are displayed along the time base in such a manner that width of each layer is determined in accordance with the number of sub-carriers used for each channel at any given time. Additionally, colors or patterns of each layer may be modified in accordance with modulation types or power levels of the corresponding layer. The relationship between colors or patterns of the layer and modulation types or power levels is displayed.

Abstract: An RF/IF signature trigger for acquiring received RF signal data is generated by correlating the received RF signal data in the form of a time domain RF/IF signal, a detected RF/IF signal and/or a frequency domain RF/IF signal with a reference signal defined by a signal signature record representing desired/undesired RF/IF signal patterns, detected RF pulse shapes, special RF markers used specifically for triggering signal acquisitions, particular signal patterns of interest and the like. The resulting correlation factor continuously calculated in real time is compared with a variable correlation threshold such that when the correlation factor reaches the variable correlation threshold, either positive or negative, the RF/IF signature trigger is generated to acquire the received RF signal data for analysis.

Abstract: A signal processing block 16 calculates propagation characteristics of a propagation path from a signal under test. A display block 17 displays the propagation characteristics calculated by the signal processing block 16. The propagation characteristics are displayed on a two dimensional coordinate of which one axis is elapsed time, and the calculated results of the propagation characteristics are represented with colors or brightness on the two dimensional coordinate. For example, powers or phases are represented with colors or brightness on a two dimensional coordinate of which axes are frequency and elapsed time to display the transfer functions. Amplitudes of delay profiles are represented with colors or brightness on a two dimensional coordinate of which axes are delay time and elapsed time to display the delay profiles.
