7.5.8 Using Power Sensors
The R&S SGS works with most of the R&S NRP power sensors and thus supports var-
ious application tasks. Using power sensors, you can for example determine attenua-
tion characteristics of downstream equipment or cables. You can use the measured
values to compensate the losses with internal control functions or with an external con-
trol circuit in real time.
R&S NRP sensors are highly accurate standalone measuring devices, suitable for a
wide range of applications. The devices communicate directly with the signal genera-
tor, calculate the average or peak power internally, include S-parameter correction and
return the measurement results to the generator.
The R&S SGS works with any sensor of the R&S NRP series and can perform up to
four power measurements simultaneously.
Check the firmware version of the R&S NRP sensors regularly. Update the firmware, if
necessary.
For updates, see the Rohde & Schwarz website http://www.rohde-schwarz.com in sec-
tion "Power Meters & Voltmeters".
