I have started to work on RF System design on ADS and I am new to it. I have designed a simple VCO (Fig.1) and can get the output signal in time domain (time vs voltage, Fig.2). I am however, cannot get the correct spectrum on frequency domain (dB vs frequency, Fig.3). How can I get it?
For example, run a harmonic balance simulation, or as starting point: convert your time domain signal into the frequency domain: fs(real(vout[0])) or db(fs(real(vout[0])))

Yes, the conversion from time to frequency domain can be realized in the dataset window, e.g in your second picture above just change real(vout[0]) to fs(real(vout[0])).
If you ran HB sim correctly, you should be able to plot voltages in the dataset window as function of frequency.

You can use fs() function in data display.More info is found in help..
HB may not work in that case because steady-state regime is not established due to ON/OFF signals.
