Patent Images
1. A method for measuring one or more properties of an output signal generated by a signal generator, comprising:
- generating a plurality of signals by the signal generator, wherein at least first and second ones of said plurality of signals have at least one property with mutually distinct values within a calibrated range of the signal generator;
receiving said at least first and second ones of said plurality of signals from the signal generator for analysis;
measuring the value of the at least one property for the received at least first and second ones of said plurality of signals to produce a plurality of measured values; and
comparing values of the calibrated range of the signal generator against the plurality of measured values of the at least one property during one or more subsequent ones of said generating, receiving and measuring.

Abstract
A method is disclosed for measuring one or more parameters of a signal generated by a signal generator. The method employs capturing and analyzing a train of data packets or other forms of signals from a single transmission to obtain measured values for the one or more parameters. The obtained measured values may be used in valuing a calibration of a signal generator or in verifying the already calibrated values of the signal generator. In accordance with a preferred embodiment, the train of data packets contains packets having different properties.
