Abstract: Transient testing methods have advantages over conventional steady-state testing methods for transmitter as well as studio applications. A sine-squared transition signal not only more directly indicates the performance of the transmitter, but enables a known phase response to be maintained, with consequent picture-quality improvement. There are practical difficulties in obtaining absolute measurements, so Go-No-Go oscilloscope graticules are suggested for routine testing.
