Equipment for the Transient Capture of Chaotic Microwave Signals

Abstract

In this project a DPO77002SX Tektronix Oscilloscope was purchased for the measurement and analysis of high-frequency signal and their characteristics. Key to the acquisition and analysis of high-frequency signals, in particular chaotic and stochastic signals, is the ability to accurately capture the time-voltage series as it occurs. Oversampling scopes use a periodic sampler to create an effective larger bandwidth, which masks any deviation from an ideal periodic signal as occurs in chaotic and stochastic signals. With the aid of extremely high-sampling rates (200 GS/s) and large memory (1 GB), an accurate measurement of time-voltage series can be captured and analyzed.
