Amplitude Error Time (Advanced Radar)

Menu Path: Trace > Data > Amplitude > Amplitude Err Time > Channel n

This trace is only available when the Synchronization Domain is Amplitude or the Pulsed checkbox is checked.  If both of these are not true, the trace won't be available for selection.

Amplitude Error Time reports the difference between the measured amplitude versus time and a reference signal's amplitude versus time. The reference signal is estimated as the VSA's best guess on a nicely formed pulse signal. Deviations from that reference are considered errors. The region of the pulse that's considered for amplitude error calculation is defined under the Pulse Properties > Regions Tab.

Amplitude Error Time = Amplitude Meas Time - Amplitude Ref Time

The Ripple Analysis Width is displayed as a dark green band that is centered on each pulse.
