Response to Pulses (Peak, Ave, RMS) Performance Test

In this test the amplitude of an un-modulated 60 dBuv (-46.99 dBm) signal is compared to the amplitude of a modulated signal. The modulated signal is defined by CISPR 16-1-1 as an RF Pulse (as compared to the DC pulse for the Quasi-Peak measurements). The reference PRF is defined for the peak detector as 100 Hz (Band E). For the Average detector, the reference PRF is defined as 50000 Hz (Band E). For the RMS-Average detector, the reference PRF is defined as 1000 Hz (Band E). The amplitude difference is compared to the CISPR limit.
