Anritsu MA24105A Power Sensor, 350 MHz to 4 GHz Inline Peak
Anritsu MA24105A Power Sensor, 350 MHz to 4 GHz Inline Peak
Anritsu MA24105A Power Sensor
Overview
The forward path supports average power, peak envelope power, crest factor, burst average power and CCDF, while the reverse path adds reverse power, reflection coefficient, return loss and SWR. A built-in microcontroller, signal conditioning and ADC make the sensor a complete miniature power meter that needs no external metering unit.
On a Windows PC the sensor runs with Anritsu's PowerXpert application for data logging, power-versus-time graphs and offset tables. It also connects by USB cable to Anritsu handheld instruments fitted with the high accuracy power meter software (Option 19), covering cellular, LMR, TETRA, APCO/P25 and radar avionics bands.
