Multicarrier power measurement
This measurement is used for adjusting multicarrier power
amplifiers to transmit well balanced multiple carriers. The
measurement is similar to a combination of those for ACPR
and intermodulation distortion product measurements
giving in-channel and out-of-channel performance results.
The results are displayed for the different frequency offsets
either in relative power to the carrier in dBc or in absolute
power in dBm.

Spectrum emission mask measurement
The spectrum emission mask measurement measures
the in-channel and out-of-channel spurious emissions to
provide useful figures of merit for spectral regrowth and
emissions produced by components and circuit blocks. Up
to five pairs of offsets/regions can be defined in which the
user can specify the start and stop frequencies, resolution
bandwidth, and the start and stop amplitudes of the mask.
