Double sided spectrum in PSS simulation

Alok110

Hello,

I am curious, If we can plot double sided spectrum (freq axis also having -ve range) in PSS analysis.

If so, How to do that ?

Thanks in advance Slight smile

    I assume you intended to write pnoiwe and css as the pss results in a time-domain result?

    There is a double sideband radio button option in the Direct Plot GUI form which I highlight in Figure 1. This feature is outlined in the Cadence Blog article at its On-line support site:

    and in the video demonstration it at URL:

    Does this help Alok110?

    Dear Alok,

    Please note, however, that the definition of phase noise is:

    Dear ShawnLogan,

    This is gonna be useful for me. But, for now I am want to see freq domain spectrum of any signal in DSB format.
