contents The four-level heterodyne Rydberg atom receiver has garnered significant attention in microwave detection and communication due to its high sensitivity and phase measurement capabilities. Existing theoretical studies, primarily based on static solutions, are limited in characterizing the system's frequency response. To address this, this paper comprehensively investigates the dynamic solutions of the density matrix elements for the four-level heterodyne structure, establishing a quantitative relationship between system response, signal frequency, and system parameters. This enables theoretical bandwidth calculations and performance analysis. This paper also constructs a noise model for the density matrix elements, revealing the relationship between the ultimate sensitivity of the Rydberg atom receiver and the noise in the density matrix elements. Both theoretical simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the bandwidth of the four-level heterodyne receiver can exceed 10 MHz. This study provides critical theoretical support for the engineering applications and performance optimization of heterodyne Rydberg atom receivers.
