Measuring the average power of burst signals
The "Burst Av" mode is the simplest way of measuring the average burst power. It is
available with the multipath power sensors (R&S
NRP-Z11/21/22/23/24/28/31/32) and
the R&S
NRP-Z8x wideband power sensors.
When this mode is selected, the sensor itself detects the start and end of the burst; no
external trigger signal is required. The parameter "Dropout" for detecting the falling edge
and the parameters of the trigger menu, see
chapter 4.2.6, "Trigger settings"
on page 85, are different ways of providing a stable measurement. By using the param-
eters "Excluded from Start" and "Excluded from End", the start and end of bursts can be
excluded from the measurement. This means that signal overshoots can be omitted from
measurements, for example.

For the most common mobile radio standards, the required settings can directly be loaded
via the "Recall Standard" dialog box in the "File" menu see
tings for mobile radio standards"
► Select "Burst Av" in the "Mode..." dialog box opened via the "Sensor" menu.

Dropout
Defines the end of the burst. If power keeps low for at least this time, the end of the burst
is assumed. Modulation-specific power drops that are shorter than the set value are
ignored.
Note:
The "Dropout" parameter must not be longer than the interval between the end of
the burst and the start of the next burst.
