Output power is a critical factor in RF component and system performance, as each stage must receive and deliver the correct power level to ensure proper operation. If the power is too low, the signal approaches the noise floor, while excessive power can cause nonlinear behavior, distortion, or even damage. Accurate power measurement is essential at every level, from individual devices to complete systems. The power meter function is used to measure transmission power, helping ensure that components operate within required limits and that overall system performance remains stable and reliable.
