Patent number: 6861833Abstract: A preselector is omitted in a spectrum analyzer, for example, which is used to prevent an image signal from being inputted. In addition, an image signal of a signal which is located outside a range of set-up measured frequencies is suppressed as much as possible. For a range of set-up measured frequencies F1˜F2, and for each of a plurality of intermediate frequencies Fi, the frequency of the sweep signal is swept over a range F1+Fi˜F2+Fi to determine first measured data, and is also swept over a range F1?Fi˜F2?Fi to determine second measured data. The first and the second measured data are compared against each other for each measured frequency point, and if they are equal, the data value obtained or a data value having a minimum value unless they are not of an equal value is delivered to obtain measured data in which image data based on image signals has been suppressed.Type: GrantFiled: October 1, 2001Date of Patent: March 1, 2005Assignee: Advantest CorporationInventor: Kouji Miyauchi
