90 dB dynamic range
If it is true that the popularity of a power sensor grows with its dynamic range, then the NRP-Z11 and NRP-Z21 stand a very good chance of becoming champions. For the first time, a range of 90 dB for broadband-modulated signals has been achieved, while the lower measurement limit (defined by noise and zero offset) remains a very respectable -67 dBm. And this does not change much if the power is to be measured within a single GSM timeslot. Even for signal-triggered measurement of the mean power of individual bursts, or the generation of a power-time template, a greater dynamic range is available than with conventional designs.
