8. Transmission Test Port Input Frequency Response
Perform this test to examine the frequency response of the transmission test port. Power
meter calibration is used to control the input to the analyzer’s receiver across its frequency
range. The network analyzer’s input receiver frequency response is measured against this
calibrated input.
Analyzer warm-up time: 30 minutes
