Saturation broadening spectra of the ground state hyperfine transition of trapped 199Hg＋ ions are measured and analyzed. The value of the optimal microwave power is obtained by using the proposed method and is verified. Rabi oscillations decay spectra of trapped 199Hg＋ ions are observed and the optimal microwave irradiation time for the maximum transition signal intensity is determined.
