These noise sources work in conjunction with the NFA Series analyzers to simplify measurement set-up and improve accuracy.Frequency range:N4000A nominal ENR 6dB 10MHz to 18GHzN4001A nominal ENR 15dB 10MHz to 18GHzN4002A nominal ENR 15dB 10MHz to 26.5GHzThe new SNS Series of noise sources are designed specifically for use with the NFA Series of noise figure analyzers. The new noise sources cover the majority of applications with a range of frequencies, ENR and also coaxial connector types.Unique calibration data is stored electronically inside the SNS and is automatically downloaded when connectedto the Agilent noise figure analyzer. The SNS Series also has the capability to measure it’s own temperature so that compensation can be applied to it’s calibration. These features will lead to more reliable measurements.Other compatible noise sources include the Agilent 346 (co-axial) series and the 347 (waveguide) series. Compatible local oscillatorsThe NFA Series noise figure analyzers support the use ofa local oscillator as part of your measurement setup, if you are making measurements on frequency translating devices or making measurements our of one standard frequency range of your noise figure analyzer. SCPI compatible signal generators are recommended, but users may also use their own custom command set.Please note: Care must be taken when specifying a local oscillator, as factors such as phase noise, spectral purity and noise floor of the signal generator may affect noise figure measurements.

Noise Figure AnalyzersN8972A N8973A N8974A N8975ANFA SeriesA Flexible and Intuitive User InterfaceThe user interface on the new NFA series of Noise Figure Analyzers is intuitive and easy to use, with easy to find keys, which are sized and then placed in the relevant key group according to function. The soft-key depths have been kept to a minimum and there are clear visual indicators on the screen showing the current machine state.Easy Measurement SetupThe NFA series of Noise Figure Analyzers now takes the pain out of complex measurement setups, with their simple but instructive menus. The built-in help button gives key function and remote pro-gramming commands, that should eliminate the need to carry man-uals when setting up measurements.Low Instrumentation UncertaintyWhen making noise figure measurements, a key parameter to be aware of is measurement uncertainty. The NFA has a low instru-mentation uncertainty to aid in accurate and repeatable measure-ment of manufacturers’ components. In addition, to aid customers in setting their components/systems specifications, Agilent has pro-duced a web-based uncertainty calculator that will give customers information on how to improve and classify their measurement specifications more accurately.For more information, visit our web site at: /find/nfIncrease Measurement ThroughputIn manufacturing environments, fast measurement speed and repeatability are critical. The NFA series of Noise Figure Analyzers now include many features that can reduce your measurement time and increase throughput. The frequency list function allows you to select specific points within a complete measurement span to make your measurement. The Sweep averaging function allows a real-time update to the screen during a measurement, as you adjust the per-formance of the DUT during a sweep. Both these functions, as well as the limit line functionality for quick and easy pass/fail testing and the additional ability to recall complete calibrated instrument states, increase productivity and measurement throughput.Enhanced ConnectivityThe built-in floppy disk drive, GPIB, RS232 serial and Printer port connectors allow quick and easy data transfer between the analyzer and a PC or workstation. There is also a built-in VGA connector for connecting a large-screen monitor.Color Graphical DisplayTo enhance usability, the new Noise Figure Analyzers now come with an integrated 17 cm full color LCD display, for simultaneous viewing of noise figure and gain against frequency. There are three different formats for viewing measurements, the two separate chan-nel or combined graph format, a table format, and a spot frequency noise figure and gain measurement “meter” format.Ease of AutomationThe NFA series of Noise Figure Analyzers include 2 industry-stan-dard GPIB ports and an RS232 serial port, to aid in the automated control of the instrument. The second GPIB port is dedicated to Local oscillator control. The default control language is SCPI, but users can also define custom LO commands.Ease of IntegrationTo aid with the integration of the new analyzer into manufacturing environments, Agilent has produced a Programmers Reference Manual containing example programs to help migrate to the new system. The NFA is not code compatible with the 8970B, nor can it control the 8971C.Full Measurement CapabilityFeatures present in all NFA series noise figure analyzers•ENR data automatically loaded into NFA series noise figure analyzer when using SNS noise source•Floppy disk loading and saving of ENR data when used with a 346 or 347 noise source•Enhanced analysis through Limit lines and Marker functions •Enhanced PC and printer connectivity and VGA output•Internal data storage capable of storing up to 30 different state,trace, and setup files (dependent upon measurement complexity)•4 MHz measurement bandwidth•Frequency list mode, which enables the user to avoid known, polluted frequencies during a measurement or, used tactically to speed up a measurementFeatures only Available on the N8973A, N8974A, N8975A•Lower noise figure measurement uncertainty ±<0.05 dB•Six user selectable bandwidths (100 KHz, 200 KHz, 400 KHz, 1 MHz, 2 MHz, and 4 MHz)• Enhanced speed•A flexible and intuitive user interface •Easy measurement setup •Low instrument uncertainty•Color graphical display of noise figure and gain versus frequency •Enhanced PC and printer connectivity•SNS, 346 and 347 Series noise source compatible•Ability to automatically upload ENR calibration data from SNS Series noise source•Local oscillator control through second dedicated GP-IB •3-year warranty as standardN8973ANoise Figure AnalyzersN8972A N8973A N8974A N8975A NFA Series Key SpecificationsSpecifications apply over 0°C to +55°C unless otherwise noted.

噪声系数计算公式在我们的日常生活和各种技术领域中,噪声是一个让人又爱又恨的存在。
有时候,它是夜晚让我们难以入眠的“小恶魔”;有时候,它又像是隐藏在复杂系统中的神秘“小精灵”,让工程师们为了找到它的规律而绞尽脑汁。
而今天咱们要聊的噪声系数计算公式,就是帮助我们抓住这个“小精灵”的有力工具。
先来说说什么是噪声系数吧。
简单来讲,噪声系数就是用来衡量一个系统或者设备引入噪声程度的一个指标。
想象一下,你正在听一首美妙的歌曲,但是音响里却时不时传来一些沙沙的杂音,这让人多扫兴啊!这个时候,噪声系数就能告诉我们,这音响到底有多“糟糕”,引入了多少不和谐的声音。
噪声系数的计算公式看起来有点复杂,但是别怕,咱们一点点来拆解。
它的基本公式是:噪声系数(NF)= 输入信噪比 / 输出信噪比。
这里的信噪比,就是信号功率与噪声功率的比值。
比如说,有一个放大器,输入信号的功率是 10 瓦,噪声功率是 1 瓦,那么输入信噪比就是 10:1 。
经过这个放大器放大后,输出信号的功率变成了 100 瓦,但是噪声功率也增加到了 10 瓦,输出信噪比就变成了 10:1 。
按照公式一算,噪声系数就是 10÷10 = 1 。
这说明这个放大器没有额外引入噪声。
但是实际情况可没这么简单,往往一个系统会由多个部分组成,这时候就得一步步来计算了。
我记得有一次,我在实验室里和学生们一起研究一个通信系统的噪声性能。
我们有一个接收前端,包括天线、滤波器和放大器。
通过测量,天线接收到的信号功率是 5 微瓦,噪声功率是 0.5 微瓦,输入信噪比就是 10:1 。
经过滤波器后,信号功率变成了 4 微瓦,噪声功率变成了 0.4 微瓦,这时候的信噪比还是 10:1 。
但是再经过放大器,输出信号功率变成了 40 微瓦,噪声功率变成了 4微瓦,输出信噪比就变成了 10:1 。
按照公式依次计算每个部分的噪声系数,然后再综合起来,可把我们累得够呛。
但是当最终得出结果,发现系统的噪声性能符合预期的时候,那种成就感简直无法形容。
