Bird Technologies Group offers a number of products for monitoring your transmission and antenna systems. These products are capable of a wide range of functions such as: detecting antenna and cable faults, accurately measures power in digitally modulated and multi-carrier systems, accurately monitoring RF power and VSWR continuously, and/or providing the ability to set alarms for important power and VSWR threshold. In addition to monitoring, these products provide accurate in-line power measurement functionality.
The Bird Transmitter Power Monitor (TPM) measures true average power, both forward and reflected, with a +/-5 percent of reading accuracy. Ideally suited for digitally modulated applications, it handles a peak-to-average ratio up to 10 dB. Its integrated non-directional coupler allows for spectral analysis of the signal, while the DB9 output allows for direct connection to Burk’s ARC Plus remote control system.
