Product Characteristics
Fast - EMC immunity measurements are time consuming. This is mainly dependent on the number
of frequency points, the dwell time and the speed of the power meter. As the first two parameters
are generally prescribed by standards, the only one that can be optimized is the speed of the power
meter. The unprecedented detector technology of DARE!! makes extremely fast and accurate
power measurements a reality, even at low power levels.
Accurate - Accuracy is another concern (in addition to speed), when performing EMC
measurements. The Radi
P
ower
®
allows for high precision EMC measurements with a large
dynamic range. Because the Radi
P
ower
®
has a high accuracy over the complete band, it is suitable
for measurements in accordance to automotive, military, telecom and EMC basic standards such
as the IEC61000-4-3/6 standards.
Low Measurement Uncertainties - Impedance mismatches contribute to the measurement
uncertainty. The Radi
P
ower
®
has a very low Standing Wave Ratio (SWR) and as a result,
measurement uncertainties are low compared to other contributions in the EMC measurement
setups.
Easy to Use - With the USB interface the Radi
P
ower
®
is easy to use. In addition, the Radi
P
ower
®
can be controlled by both the Radi
M
ation
®
integral EMC measurement software and any other
EMC measurement packages, because all the software codes needed to control the unit are
available. For ‘stand-alone use’ of the Radi
P
ower
®
, Radi
M
ation
®
Free measurement software is
delivered with the system. By using the USB1004A plug-in card, up to four Radi
P
ower
®
heads can
be connected to a single plug-in card in a Radi
C
entre
®
.
CW Signals & RF Bursts - To enable the measurement of RF bursts, the Radi
P
ower
®
can also be
delivered as a RF pulse power head. This P-version of the Radi
P
ower
®
is able to measure RF bursts
as short as a few microseconds. The C-version of the Radi
P
ower
®
only supports power
measurements for CW signals.
