Adjacent channel power (ACP)

The Adjacent Channel Power (ACP) is the power contained in a specified frequency
channel bandwidth relative to the total carrier power. it may also be expressed as a ratio
of power spectral densities between the carrier and the specified offset frequency band.
The ACP measures the power of a carrier channel and the power in its adjacent (offset)
channels. The measurement results allow you to determine whether the carrier power
is set correctly and whether the transmitter filter is working properly. You can measure
the channel power in from one to five adjacent (offset) channels on the lower frequency
band.
