Test Procedure
8. Allow an adequate settling time for the DUT and the power sensor before reading. Settling
time for the power sensor is specified for different power levels. The low limit specified for
the power sensor is -45 dBm. Wait 15 seconds before taking a power meter reading when
the DUT power is changed to -45 dBm. After taking the first reading wait 1 second before
taking successive readings. It may be necessary to make repetitive measurements until the
difference between two successive readings is within a specified limit of < 0.01 dB. This limit
must be set so that the range of measurement results is small in comparison to the limit. For
other power levels the wait time before taking a reading is 2 seconds, and the wait time
between successive readings is 0.1 seconds.
9. Compare the Power Level Accuracy to the specification as follows:
Equation 1-1
10. Set the power to +5 dBm and repeat step 8 and step 9.
