Field Strength Measurements - Keysight N9340B Demo Manual

Section 11

Field Strength Measurements

Electromagnetic field strength measurements are frequently required for
transmitter and antenna coverage testing in the field.
The N9340B includes field strength measurements as a standard function.
Calibrated field strength measurements are easy to make once antenna factors
have been loaded into the analyzer via the antenna template provided by the
N9340 PC software.
The N9340B provides you with quick and convenient field strength measure-
ments and analysis. Either field strength (in dBmV/m, dBmV/m, or V/m) or
power flux density (in dBm/m or W/m) can be displayed. Use the amplitude
offset function to correct gain or loss. You can also set limit lines for pass/fail
testing.
In the following demo, an Omni antenna with a frequency range from 890 MHz to
960 MHz is needed.
1. Edit the antenna factor file and load it into the N9340B
via USB cable.
