  • Patent number: 9220079
    Abstract: A signal analysis device includes a synchronization data generation unit, a synchronization correction value calculation unit, and a correction unit. The synchronization unit outputs an A/D-converted correction signal as first synchronization data. The first synchronization data is associated with time based on the timing of a trigger signal input from the outside. The synchronization correction value calculation unit calculates, as a first synchronization correction value, an amplitude ratio, a phase difference, and a time difference between the first synchronization data and second synchronization data input from the outside on the basis of the first synchronization data and the second synchronization data. The correction unit corrects the amplitude, phase, and timing of the RF signal output from the object to be measured, on the basis of the first synchronization correction value or a second synchronization correction value input from the outside.
