Pulse amplitude

In telecommunication, pulse amplitude is the magnitude of a pulse parameter, such as the field intensity[?], voltage level, current level, or power level.

Note 1: Pulse amplitude is measured with respect to a specified reference and therefore should be modified by qualifiers, such as "average," "instantaneous," "peak," or "root-mean-square."

Note 2: Pulse amplitude also applies to the amplitude of frequency- and phase-modulated waveform envelopes.
