The most important features for accurate and simple power measurements are maximum measurement accuracy and speed, and easy operation with a base unit or PC/laptop. The Rohde & Schwarz NRP family combines all these features with the NRP2 base unit, NRPV virtual power meter PC software and a wide range of USB-capable power sensors.

The company offers an extensive portfolio for power measurements from DC to 110 GHz, from -67 to +45 dBm, including: three-path diode power sensors with 90 dB dynamic range; wideband power sensors for performing accurate envelope power analysis; thermal power sensors for maximum accuracy; and level control sensors and power sensor modules for special applications.

The NRP power sensors can be connected to a laptop or PC via USB and controlled via the NRPV virtual power meter PC software. Up to four power sensors can be operated in parallel with a NRP2 base unit. They are also supported by virtually all of the company’s signal generators and signal, spectrum and network analysers.

Depending on the application, the focus of power measurements is either on measurement accuracy, measurement speed or the optimal combination of both. NRP family is said to offers the best characteristics on the market for all applications.
