and U2000 Series USB Power Sensors

Demo Guide

Introduction

This demonstration guide helps you to get familiar with the basic setup

and conguration requirements to perform power measurements using

the Keysight Technologies, Inc. U2000 Series USB power sensor via

Keysight N1918A Power Analysis Manager.

All demonstrations exercised in this guide require the U2000 Series bundled

application software N1918A Power Analysis Manager–Power Panel, any of

the U2000 Series USB power sensors and a Keysight ESG E4438C vector

signal generator.

This demonstration guide includes a step-by-step demonstration of basic

average and pulse measurements.

The U2000 Series USB power sensors are average, wide dynamic range power

sensors that can be used with a PC or any selected Keysight USB-based instrument.

Key Features

– Performs power measurements without a power meter

– Offers a frequency range of 9 kHz to 24 GHz (sensor-dependent)

– Provides a dynamic range from –60 dBm to +44 dBm

– Offers internal zeroing capability and external calibration-free measurements

– Allow average power measurement of CW and modulated signals, including

GSM, EDGE, WLAN and WIMAXTM

Power Panel

The Power Panel is the basic version of the Power Analysis Manager and is bundled

with the purchase of a U2000 Series USB power sensor. The Power Panel provides an

easy-to-use GUI that offers basic features that can be found in a typical power meter.

Key Features

– Processes and displays multi-channel power measurements (with more than

10 channels simultaneously)

– Provides larger, enhanced visual display, including power versus time graph

(trend chart)

– Performs delta and ratio computations between data from two channels

– Saves and restores instrument settings

– Stores up to 10,000 measurement points

– Stores data in comma separated value (CSV) les that are compatible with

Microsoft Excel

– Provides up to 10 frequency dependent offset (FDO) tables

– Supports time-gated measurement capability

Power Sensors

Instructions

1. Connect the USB sensor to a PC that runs the Power Analysis

Manager and the Keysight IO Libraries Suite 14.2 or higher

using the USB mini-B connector.

2. Connect the other end of the USB sensor to the ESG as shown

in Figure 3.

3. Go to Start > All Programs > Keysight IO Libraries Suite >

Keysight Connection Expert to launch the Keysight Connection

Expert application.

4. Detect and verify all connected instruments to ensure suc-

cessful connections have been established. Right-click on

each listed instrument in the Keysight Connection Expert and

send the standard *IDN? command to the instrument for

identication.

5. Once all connected instruments have been successfully veried,

launch the Power Panel to begin. Go to Start > All Programs >

Keysight N1918A Power Analysis Manager > Power Panel.

6. To start using the Power Panel, search for a connected

instrument using the options available in the Find Connected

Instrument panel.

7. Click Find to search for a connected instrument via the sup-

ported IO connectivity—GPIB, LAN, or USB options.

8. Select the USB sensor and click Connect. The Power Panel

is ready to use.

9. Select the USB sensor on the Instrument Navigator panel.

On the Instrument Properties panel, click Zero to perform

zeroing on the USB sensor.

Pulse Power Measurement Demonstration

Pulse power is determined by measuring the average power of the pulse and then

dividing the measurement results by the pulse cycle value to obtain the pulse power

reading, as expressed by the following equation:

Pp= Pavg / Duty Cycle

The measurement result is a mathematical representation of the pulse power rather

than the actual measurement with the assumption of constant peak power. To ensure

accurate pulse power readings, the input signal must be a repetitive rectangular pulse

with a constant duty cycle.

Objective

To demonstrate the capability of the Power Panel to carry out pulse power measure-

ment using the U2000 Series USB power sensor.

In this demonstration, we supplying a pulsed signal with the pulse width of 10 μs and

a pulse period or pulse repetition interval (PRI) of 40 μs. The pulse signal is set to the

power level of approximately 0 dBm. The measured average power of the signal is

–6.24 dBm (See Figure 6). The duty cycle is known to be 10 μs divided by 40 μs, which

is 25%—this value can be congured in the Power Panel. This generates a pulse reading

of –0.22 dBm (See Figure 7).

To understand what the USB power sensor does, we can look at the duty cycle calcula-

tion. The equation, Average Power = 10 log (Pulse Width/PRI), provides the difference

between average power and pulse power. The calculated value in this demonstration

shows that the average power is –6.02 dBm lower than the pulse power. The Power

Panel makes this correction to show the pulse power using the provided duty cycle.

Instructions

On the ESG

1. Set the instrument to default Press [Preset]

2. Set the frequency and amplitude 1. Press [Frequency] 1900 > MHz

2. Press [Amplitude] 0 > dBm

3. Set the pulse signal 1. Press [Pulse] Pulse Period > 40 > usec

2. Pulse Width > 10 > usec

4. Activate the pulse signal Toggle Pulse On/Off to “ON”
