Spectrum Analyzer
A
spectrum analyzer
is a device used to examine the spectral composition of some
electrical
,
acoustic
or
optical
waveform
. Often, it measures the
power spectrum
. There are
analogue
and
digital
spectrum analyzers:
An
analogue
spectrum analyzer uses basically a variable
bandpass filter
whose mid-frequency is automatically
tuned
(shifted, swept) through the range of frequencies of which the spectrum is to be measured.
A
digital
spectrum analyzer uses
fast Fourier transform
(FFT), a mathematical processes transforms a waveform into its compositions of frequencies in the
spectrum
. As a result, computer programs can compute such transforms, and makes
audio processing
easier. FFTs have applications in much wider fields.
