3-4 Calibration Considerations Quick Start Guide

Setting Up Distance Domain (Option 501)
This option is fully described in the Vector Network Analyzer Measurement Guide. Refer to
Appendix A, “Supplemental Documentation” for a list of these guides and their Anritsu part
numbers. Measurement Guides are available as free downloads from the Anritsu Web site.
3-4 Calibration Considerations
Various 2-port calibrations are available in the VNA Master. Transmission response is the
simplest and requires only one connection during calibration, but it does not correct for test
port match errors. 1-Path 2-Port calibration requires four calibration connections and
corrects for the transmit port match, but does not correct for the receive port.
Note
The previously described calibration considerations omit isolation steps in which
loads are connected to each test port. During the isolation step of the calibration
procedure, the VNA Master measures the isolation between test ports in order to
achieve best dynamic range performance.
The Vector Network Analyzer Calibration menu is the same one that is used in the
Vector Voltmeter menu. Refer to section “Calibration Menus” in Chapter 5 of the
Vector Network Analyzer Measurement Guide (refer to Appendix A) for more
information about the calibration menu. Note that some calibration parameters are
shared between the Vector Network Analyzer and Vector Voltmeter mode, and that
some parameters are different because they were optimized for the specific mode
application.
