Z power sensor types
The R&S NRP
‑
Z power sensors are highly accurate standalone measuring instruments
that offer all the functionality of conventional power meters, and more, within the small
housing of a power sensor. With a high dynamic range, the different types of R&S
NRP
‑
Z power sensors are suitable for nearly every measurement task:
●
Three-path power sensors
With patented three-path technology. Suitable for many applications, thanks to
their wide dynamic and frequency range. The sensors feature high measurement
accuracy independent of the modulation type and speed and offer a wide range of
functions.
●
Two-path power sensors
With slightly modified dynamic range and performance. A cost-effective solution
ideal for production applications.
●
Wideband power sensors
With high video bandwidth that permits accurate time-domain analysis of the enve-
lope power. Analysis is fast and easy thanks to also integrated measurement func-
tions such as automatic pulse analysis.
●
Thermal power sensors
With outstanding measurement accuracy. They are the first choice for power mea-
surements in the frequency range from DC to 110 GHz as performed in calibration
labs, where measurement accuracy is the key requirement.
●
Average power sensors
Specially developed for EMC applications and cover the required frequency range
from 9
kHz to 6
GHz.
●
Level control sensors
With an integrated splitter that can split the signal into two parts of equal power.
This feature allows you to feed power to a device under test (DUT) and monitor the
power at the same time.
●
Power sensor modules
Developed for level calibration using the R&S
FSMR measuring receiver.
