In a "Power" sweep, the internal generator power is swept in dB-linear, equidistant
steps over a continuous power range. The generator power range (sweep range) and
the fixed frequency can be specified in the "Stimulus" settings (see
"Power" sweeps are particularly suitable for the analysis of non-linear effects (satura-
tion, compression) on active and passive DUTs (e.g. power amplifiers, mixers).
In a Cartesian diagram, the measurement result is displayed as a trace over a dB-lin-
ear power scale. The following example shows a "Power" sweep in the source power
range between
–
25 dBm and 0 dBm, performed at a CW frequency of 1 GHz.
Any generator power calibration is included.
