Abstract
The present invention relates to an analysis of a waveform of a signal. A waveform of the signal is divided into multiple sections and a signal integrity identifier is assigned to each section. Accordingly, a representation of the respective signal integrity identifier may be provided for each section of the waveform. The representation of the signal integrity identifier may comprise an abstract representation, for example a graphical element, an alphanumeric element, a color or even an audio signal.
Claims16
