R&S®NRP Power Meter

The art of measuring power accurately

Key Facts
Picture R&S®NRP Power Meter

Accurate determination of RF power is one of the most challenging tasks in the field of electrical test and measurement. The R&S®NRP power meter family is ideal for a vast number of applications in R & D, production and maintenance as well as in calibration laboratories. In addition to the R&S®NRP base unit, there are a number of sensors available to perform diverse measurements. Complex signals with digital modulation (e.g. as required by advanced mobile radio standards such as WCDMA and WiMAX) are handled as easily as are CW signals, carriers with analog modulation (e.g. AM, FM) and pulsed RF.

Each R&S®NRP-Zx sensor is an independent test instrument and can be operated directly via USB. The sensors are typically connected using the R&S®NRP-Z4 passive USB adapter. Regardless of the type, no calibration is required prior to making measurements, since calibration data is stored directly in the sensor at the factory.
