Abstract:
1. A method for displaying a plurality of error measures for an error-containing digitally modulated signal formed of a first and a second orthogonal component, said method comprising: determining for each digital value a value for an error-free version of said modulated signal; determining for each digital value a value for said error-containing version of said modulated signal; determining for each digital value a vector difference between said value for said error-containing version of said modulated signal and the respective value for said error-free version of said modulated signal; and displaying said vector differences on a two-dimensional display of an instrument that receives said vector differences, each difference being displayed as a point, said points forming a cluster of points, one such cluster corresponding to each determined value of said error-free version of said modulated signal, and being located at a position in said display that is determined by that error-free version.
