ABSTRACT:
To measure the level of test signals over a frequency range of variable bandwidth B, bounded by a lower frequency f' and an upper frequency f", these signals are heterodyned with a variable modulating frequency to produce a frequency spectrum encompassing the pass band of an intermediate-frequency filter of fixed bandwidth b.ltoreq.B, centered on a frequency f.sub.c. By periodically shifting the modulating frequency between a minimum value of f'-f.sub.c +(b/2) and a maximum value of f"-f.sub.c -(b/2), either continuously or in steps, the frequency range of bandwidth B is scanned by a window of bandwidth b transposed to the pass band of the filter as the midfrequency f.sub.m of the window varies in a sweep cycle between f'+b/2 and f"-b/2. The signal level in the output of the filter, integrated over the sweep cycle, is weighted with a corrective factor B/b.
