Data accuracy enhancement

Measurement calibration

Measurement calibration signifi cantly reduces
measurement uncertainty due to errors caused
by system directivity, source and load match,
tracking and crosstalk. Full 2-port calibration
removes all the systematic errors for the
related test ports to obtain the most accurate
measurements.

Calibration types available

Response

Simultaneous magnitude and phase correction of
frequency response errors for either refl ection or
transmission measurements.

Response and isolation

Compensates for frequency response and
crosstalk errors of transmission measurements.

Enhanced response

Compensates for frequency response and source
match errors.

One-port calibration

Compensates for directivity, frequency response
and source match errors.

Full 2-port calibration
(option 215, 235, 217, 237, 3L5)

Compensates for directivity, source match,
refl ection tracking, load match, transmission
tracking and crosstalk. Crosstalk calibration can
be omitted.

Interpolated error correction

With any type of accuracy enhancement
applied, interpolated mode recalculates the
error coeffi cients when the test frequencies are
changed. The number of points can be increased
or decreased and the start/stop frequencies can
be changed.

Velocity factor

Enter the velocity factor to calculate the
equivalent physical length.

Reference port extension

Redefi ne the measurement plane from the plane
where the calibration was done.
