350 MHz to 6 GHz, Statistical RF Power Sensor
Measure and Maintain Complex Wireless Systems
The 7022, Statistical RF Power Sensor is a rugged, easy to use field instrument that uses statistical sampling techniques. In modern communications, signal average power, although important is no longer a sufficient control variable. These communication signals often require more diagnostic measurements. In the statistical mode, the power sensor measures the percentage of time the signal exists at a specific peak-to-average ratio. In the time domain mode, the sensor adds a variety of functions similar to an oscilloscope to our standard suite of measurements
The statistical power sensor can be used in all known communication formats and is able to accurately measure a wide range of RF measurements for non-periodic signals such as EVDO, UMTS, LTE, and HDTV. Like all Bird Sensors, its calibration is also traceable to NIST standards with no field calibration required.
