The Boonton RTP5318 Real-Time Peak Power Sensor is a high-performance instrument engineered for precise RF power measurements across a broad spectrum. It integrates Boonton’s proprietary Real-Time Power Processing™ (RTPP) technology, enabling it to capture, display, and measure every pulse, glitch, and signal anomaly with zero latency and no gaps in data. This capability is crucial for analyzing complex modulated and pulsed signals common in modern communication and radar systems. The RTP5318 is designed for engineers and system integrators working in fields such as radar, telecommunications, electronic warfare, and general RF testing.
