Effect of the Bandwidth on jitter measurement

I measure the rms jitter of an optical signal of a 10G XFP using a high bandwidth oscilloscope (Agilent 86100B mainframe and Agilent 86116B module) but without the a 4th order Bessel Thompson filter with a –3dB point at 0.75 of the bit rate. Should I expect much more jitter than if I use the filter? ywfdvnfles

Can I correct my rms result with the following formula to simulate the filter?ywfdvnfles
ywfdvnfles
Jrms(with filter) = Jrms(without filter)*(Bandwidth filter / Bandwidth oscillo)^0.5ywfdvnfles

1 z315 Jitter in general will be better when the noise bandwidth is reduced. Also when the predominant jitter component is white noise (random jitter) the scaling is proportional to the sqrt(bandwidth). In practice however, both of these are not necessarily valid and your results will be somewhat different.
