Abstract :
A technique to provide traceability for RF pulsed power measurements, predominantly used in 2G and 2.5G mobile communications is described. The method is used to verify the performance of an RF pulsed power signal generator and peak-power meter. The implications and limitations of the method for other data formats are discussed.
