Transmit power measurement
The transmit power measurement determines the average
power for an RF signal burst at or above a user specified
threshold value. The threshold value may be absolute, or
relative to the peak value of the signal.
Transmit power
GMSK modulation (GSM)
Carrier power range at
+30dBm(1W) to –60 dBm
Absolute power accuracy +30 to –40dBm at RF input
for in-band signal

+18 to 30 °C
±0.6 dB (±0.4 dB, typical)
0 to +55 °C
±0.9 dB
Relative power accuracy
±0.25dB (±0.1dB, typical)

Phase and frequency error measurement
Phase and frequency error measures the modulation
quality of a GSM transmitter. Phase and frequency error
can be displayed both numerically and or graphically. A
binary representation of the demodulated data bits is also
available.
