This chapter
This chapter provides information about the characteristic and configuration
of the analog RSSI output on the radio.
3.9.1 Introduction/Overview
Introduction
The received signal strength indication (RSSI) is available as an analog
voltage via the RSSI output on the rear side of the radio (X11.8).
The R&S Series 4200 radios support a configurable analog RSSI output.
RSSI Output Type
The RSSI output characteristic can be configured with the “RSSI Output”
parameter in two different modes:
 “R&S Standard” type with a linear dependency of the received signal
strength predefined by the manufacturer (see Fig. 3.80 RSSI
output type  R&S Standard)

“User defined” type with variable u
ser defined parameter settings to
adapt the radio behavior to customer’s needs (see Fig. 3.81 RSSI
output type  User defined)
R&S Standard
The
RSSI output type “R&S Standard” has a linear characteristic with the
slope of 38.5 mV/dB and offset of 4620 mV @ 0 dBm.
