How to Measure Powers in the Time Domain
The step-by-step procedure to measure powers in the time domain is described here in
detail.
For remote operation, see
Chapter 8.6.8.4, "Programming Example: Time Domain
To measure the power in the time domain
1. Select the "Time Domain Power" measurement function from the "Select Measure-
ment" dialog box.
2. Select the type of power measurement results to be determined by selecting the
corresponding softkeys.
3. To restrict the power evaluation range, define limits:
a) Select the "Time Dom Power Config" softkey to display the "Time Domain
Power" configuration dialog box.
b) Switch on the limits by setting the "Limit State" to "On" .
The limit lines S1 and S2 are displayed.
c) Define the left limit (limit line S1), the right limit (S2), or both.
4. Start a sweep.
The measured powers are displayed in the marker results.
