Single Band:
Single Band is the conventional mode, and as the name suggests,
is used for single band processing. When Single Band is selected,
lower and upper limits can be set for the High Band Range only.
Dual Band
(Buffered
Measurement):
Dual Band, also referred to as “buffered measurement,” is
provided for octave band processing such that spectral lines [at
settings of 6400 and smaller] can cover a larger frequency
range. The Dual Band mode uses buffer memory when
processing the lower frequency range.
Dual band uses 32 block sizes. This makes it possible for eZ-
Analyst to simultaneously process 32 “time segments” in the
lower frequency range, as indicated in the following figure.
1 Block Processed for High Band
32 Blocks Processed for Low Band
