Using E4410 E-Series Power Sensors Introduction - Keysight N1913 User Manual

4 Using E4410 E-Series Power Sensors
Introduction
The E4410 E-Series power sensors are diode based power sensors. They are
intended for the measurement of CW microwave power levels in a wide dynamic
range from –70 dBm to +20 dBm (100 pW to 100 mW). These are high-speed
power sensors, and do not incorporate narrow-bandwidth averaging used in
average-power sensors. Signals with digital, pulse, or other forms of amplitude
modulation may introduce measurement errors.
Multi-tone signals (containing multiple frequency components), or signals with
significant harmonic content (> –45 dBc) may introduce measurement errors at
high power levels.
Please refer to the documentation supplied with your E-Series E4410 power
sensor for specification and calibration information.
