Abstract: There are provided frequency analyzing method and apparatus, and a spectrum analyzer capable of reliably detecting and displaying a radio wave even if the radio wave is a frequency spread or low level one. A signal to be measured existing in a frequency band to be measured is extracted by a plurality of measurement signal extracting devices, and each of the extracted plural signals to be measured is frequency analyzed to compute a correlation value with respect to the plural results of frequency analyses. If the computed correlation value is equal to or greater than a preset value, a decision that the signal to be measured exists in the analyzed frequency is rendered, and if the computed correlation value is smaller than the preset value, a decision that the signal to be measured does not exist in the analyzed frequency is rendered. The decision results are displayed.
