Optimizing Performance
Using External Leveling
Determining the Leveled Output Power
Figure 3-3 shows the input power versus output voltage characteristics for typical Agilent Technologies
diode detectors. Using this chart, you can determine the leveled power at the diode detector input by
measuring the external detector output voltage. You must then add the coupling factor to determine the
leveled output power. The range of power adjustment is approximately -20 to +25 dBm.
