Atec Agilent-E9304A User Manual
Wide dynamic range. Multiple modulation
formats. One sensor.
Whether you design, manufacture, or maintain RF
and microwave communication equipment, you
know the importance of making accurate average
power measurements. With communications moving to higher modulation bandwidths and new
types of signal format, you may find yourself buying multiple sensors to cover the varying power
and bandwidth requirements of each modulation
format.
The Agilent Technologies E-series E9300 power
sensors simplify your measurement equipment
requirement and save you time and money, as well.
Used with the Agilent E4418 (single-channel) and
E4419 (dual-channel) EPM series power meters,
these new sensors can measure the average power
of RF and microwave signals, regardless of the
modulation format, over a wide 80 dB dynamic
range (sensor dependent).

E-Series
Technical Overview
2
Now you can use a single power sensor to measure
complex digital modulation formats—including
those used in today’s wireless communication,
satellite, and cable TV systems—at both low and
high power levels. The same E-series power sensor
also measures multi-tone and continuous-wave
(CW) signals.
There are currently seven E9300 sensors available,
operating from 9 kHz to 18 GHz and -60 to +44 dBm:
E9300A 10 MHz to 18 GHz -60 to +20 dBm
E9300B 10 MHz to 18 GHz -30 to +44 dBm
E9300H 10 MHz to 18 GHz -50 to +30 dBm
E9301A 10 MHz to 6 GHz -60 to +20 dBm
E9301B 10 MHz to 6 GHz -30 to +44 dBm
E9301H 10 MHz to 6 GHz -50 to +30 dBm
E9304A 9 kHz to 6 GHz -60 to +20 dBm
A special option E9304A1is available to cover the
frequency range 9 kHz to 18 GHz (E9304A special
option H18). Measurements are fast—up to 200
readings per second—accurate, and repeatable.
E9300 power sensors are bandwidth independent,
so you do not have to worry about matching sensor
bandwidth to the modulation format of your signal
under test. Simply connect the power sensor to the
test signal and begin measuring.
With all this capability, you can standardize on one
power sensor for all of your average power measurement applications, eliminating the need to
change sensors during measurement tasks and
minimizing the cost of equipment.
