The main prerequisite for measuring anything meaningful is that the target parameter (THD) is much better in your measurement system than in the system under test. The higher the difference, the more accurate your result will be. If your measurement system is orders of magnitude better, that the system under test, the measurement error can be neglected. If ...

I agree with @user28715 answer. The best method is to apply a filter to your timeseries to get calibrated timeseries. Filter You did not specify which language you are using, but in Matlab I use the designfilt function. https://www.mathworks.com/help/signal/ref/designfilt.html d = designfilt('arbmagfir',...); a = 1; b = d.Coefficients; or you ...

@jithin 's answer gave me an idea that I think answers my question. I'm going to define a new window function: $$W_{\Delta t}(t) = \theta\left(t-\frac{\Delta t}{2}\right)\theta\left(\frac{\Delta t}{2} - t\right)$$ This is the same as $W_{\Delta t}(t)$ in the post except for the missing factor of $\frac{1}{\sqrt{\Delta t}}$. The PSD is then defined as  ...

I am assuming $X(t)$ is a passband signal having finite support (non zero value for only a finite range of frequencies within spectrum analyzers range). In your equation (1) what you have missed is $f_{LO}$ to $f_{IF}$ conversion. So $W_{\Delta t}$ should be $W_{IF}(t) = e^{j2\pi (f_{LO}-f_{IF})t}W_{\Delta t}(t)$. When you convolve $X(t)$ and $W_{IF}(t)$, ...

I am trying to do the same. My idea is to apply a digital filter based on the sensitivity/frequency curve, in order to calibrate my signal. Have you done this successfully?
