Re: Adjacent Channel Power Measuring Equipment

Paul:

Tektronix has a good application note covering measurement of adjacent
channel power.   I am not sure but I don't think the 8566B can be triggered
to perform such measurements, I've been away from the field a little too
long . Tek markets the Rhode and Schwartz products and most modern spectrum
analyzers have that capability.  A call to the local office should get you
some help.

Subject: Adjacent Channel Power Measuring Equipment



 Hello Group,

 I am having a little trouble with section 8.5 (adjacent channel power) of
 ETSI EN 300 220-1.  Specifically, I am having difficulty understanding the
 requirements for the power-measuring receiver defined in Annex B.  My
 questions are:

 1. Is the HP EMI rack, consisting of an 8566B spectrum analyzer, an 85685A
 RF pre-selector, and an 85650A quasi-peak adapter a suitable instrument
for
 making adjacent channel power measurements?

 2. If the HP EMI rack will not properly measure adjacent channel power per
 ETSI EN 300 220-1, what instrument or instruments will?

 If anyone could help shed a little light on the above question, I would be
 most thankful.

 Regards,

 Paul Slavens
