The Field Strength configuration option allows the user to enter the correction
factors for the antenna and cable used when measuring the field strength.
Figure 56.
Data fields to be filled are:
►
Antenna :
Type : In this field the user can select the type of antenna between
manual and any other type of antenna available. If you select the
manual antenna, you must enter the correction factor by hand. If you
select an antenna type then the correction factors associated with each
frequency are applied. These data are defined in the antenna file
imported by the user.
Factor : This is the correction factor (K) for the antenna at the
measurement frequency.
Detector Type : (PEAK / RMS). It allows the user to select between
maximum PEAK detector or RMS detector. The maximum peak detector
is mainly used for analogue modulated signals, while the RMS option is
the right choice for digital modulated signals.
►
Cable
Type : In this field contains the user can select the type of antenna
between manual and any other type of cable available. If you select the
manual cable, you must enter cable loss by hand.
Loss (dB): In this field you must enter the estimated loss for the cable
used to connect to the antenna.
In the bottom of the configuration window you can see the field strength in real
time according to the current frequency and correction factors.
