Abstract

A device and method are provided for monitoring and analyzing received over-the-air energy. According to one aspect, a device and method are provided for performing spectrum analysis on the received energy, generating data for displaying one or more plots associated with the analyzed received energy; determining a type of one or more signals occurring from the received energy; and generating data for displaying on the same display screen as said one or more plots, a name for the one or more signals determined to be occurring. Thus, unlike traditional spectrum analyzer devices that show plots or waveforms, the method and device described herein shows plots or waveforms and on the same screen a list of the devices causing those plots or waveforms. In addition, a filter may be applied to the plots or traces whereby plots are displayed for a particular user-specified device determined to be occurring, or a user-specified type or class of devices determined to be occurring. According to another aspect, the monitoring method and device involves performing spectrum analysis on the received energy, displaying one or more plots associated with the receive energy, and in response to determin…
