studying/simulating pulse power amplification

I am looking for a way to study the effects of amplifying a pulsed power signal.
I would like to generate a drive signal of 324MHz with a pulse repetition rate of 50Hz and pulse width of 2ms, having a power of +10dBm, and would like to amplify it to +47dBm. i have some amplifier specifications that i can use to characterise the amplifier. Can i simulate all these using just LabVIEW, or would i need some add-ons please?

is there a tutorial i can follow to start what i would like to simulate please?

I look forward to hear from anyone who has any suggestions. Thank you for your kind attention.

regards,

I think this sounds more like a job for SPICE (or one of its many flavors)  You can download an evaluation copy of ICAP4 from www.intusoft.com, that comes with a very complete R.F. toolkit.  ICAP4 uses a SPICE engine, but has a graphical input mode.  Very easy to use, if you haven't used SPICE before.
 
Although you probably CAN model R.F. amplifiers with Labview, you have to have the mathematical model for each component to do it right.  SPICE is made for that.
