HBnoise Error

ArnabBaruah
ArnabBaruah over 5 years ago

I am trying to run a HBnoise simulation after a 2 tone HB Analysis.Here is the HB Analysis setup 

The HBNoise setup looks like the following 

My goal is to measure the Noise Figure(NF) by considering the Input noise in 400 MHz -401 MHz band folding back to the 1 Hz-1 MHz band at the output.

However when I run the simulation,I get the following error message.

I have tried selecting several different reference side-bands from the list and each option leads to the same error.

I have also tried running a one tone HB analysis followed by a HBNoise simulation and I still get the same error.

I would appreciate any help on getting this resolved.
