Bandwidth
BW (BandWidth) feature configures how narrow GSP-830 can sort out different
signal peaks (resolution), and how fast the display can be updated (sweep time).
Averaging the waveform is also available for smoothing noise level. The resolution and
the sweep time (+averaging) are in a trade-off relationship, so configuration should be
done with care.

Select RBW (Resolution BandWidth)
Background
RBW (Resolution Bandwidth) defines the width of the IF (intermediate
frequency) filter that is used to separate signal peaks from one
another. The narrower the RBW, the greater the capability to
separate signals at close frequencies. But it also makes the sweep
time longer under specific frequency span; the display is updated less
frequently. See for the reference to select the suitable RBW.
