.
You should now see a display that is similar to the one shown in
. The CCDF plot
displays the peak to average characteristics of the waveform with randomly generated phases and
a random seed.
The random phase setup simulates the typically random nature of multitone waveforms. Notice
that randomly distributed phases result in a much lower peak to average ratio than fixed phases.
An increase in the number of tones with random phases will decrease the probability of a
maximum peak power occurrence.
