    Posted: 15/February/2012 at 19:14
Hi,

When we use spectrum analyzer to measure antenna receive power for gain calculation, i find out that the spectrum analyzer can measure few kind of powers like channel power, average power and total power. So which kind of power should i choose?

During the measurement with the spectrum analyzer, is it a must to see a peak in the receive power vs frequency plot? I found out that it still showing some power value even the screen does not show a peak.

How much the frequency span i should set?

Thanks

ISR is the lynchpin of modern warfare and the methodology by which it is collected, analysed and disseminated continues to develop as forces encounter new and familiar challenges across air, land and sea in the 21st century. Both the cyber and space domains have seen and continue to see an incremental increase in offensive and defensive activity over recent years and, in these two domains, ISR finds itself yet more relevant. SMi are pleased to announce the 2nd instalment of MilSatCom Asia taking place on the 9th and 10th May 2012 in Singapore.
