Descriptions
The following descriptions explain the types of power measurements that are
available and when to use each of them. Table 3 indicates which power
measurements are available on which screens for the different hardware
configurations.
TX Power [dB]
This is a relative measurement; measured in dB (not dBm or W). This is the only
DTC power measurement available if your Test Set is not equipped with Option
006 and you are not using a PCS Interface. This is one of the measurements
displayed when EVM1 or EVM10 is measured on the CALL CONTROL or
DIGITAL MEASUREMENTS screens.
