Fig. 29c. Characteristics of the Peak-to-Average Ratio measurement.
Note In Fig. 29c, the Peak power and top level power of the pulse are similar and the time markers are placed so
that the pulse occupies approximately half of the time interval. Therefore, a peak-to-average ratio of about
3 dB is expected.
