AM, FM, and FM each consist of two modulation paths which are summed internally for
composite modulation. The modulation sources may be any two of the following: Internal,
External 1, External 2.
Multiple modulation types may be simultaneously enabled. For example, W-CDMA, AM,
and FM can run concurrently and all will affect the output RF. This is useful for simulating
signal impairments. There are some exceptions: FM and FM cannot be combined; AM
and Burst envelope cannot be combined; Wideband AM and internal I/Q cannot be
combined. Two modulation types cannot be generated simultaneously by the same
modulation source.
