  • Abstract
    Adjacent Channel Power (ACP) is a key spectral measurement, particularly for power amplifiers in modern wireless communication systems. This paper presents a definition of ACP and the current methodology for measuring it. We will propose an alternative way to use modular RF instruments to optimize the measurement performance of ACP, while keeping the measurement time low.
