Scaling Steady State Output
Steady state results are automatically normalized to a 1V sinusoid by the calculation engine. Measurements in laboratory do not typically behave this way and therefore scaling must be applied. XF7 allows easy scaling of Net Input Power, Radiated Power, Dissipated Power, and other discrete frequency output.
Scaling can be applied by simply double clicking on any discrete frequency value in the System Sensor tab. Once it is selected, a value can be entered. This scaling factor will be applied to other steady state data like planar sensors, HAC, and SAR results.

Note: scaling is only valid for linear systems. Switches, nonlinear materials, and diodes are examples on nonlinear components.
