Making Measurements
Measuring Reflection Response
Calibrate For a Reflection Response Measurement
Your analyzer can provide highly accurate measurements without performing
any additional user-calibrations if certain conditions are met. This example
describes how to perform a reflection one-port calibration. A one port
calibration uses known standards to correct for directivity, source match, and
frequency response errors in narrowband measurements.
To perform a reflection one-port calibration you will need one of the following
calibration kits depending on the nominal impedance of your analyzer:
HP 850323
for 50 !I type-N female connector calibrations
HP 85032B
for type-N female or type-N male 50 Q connector calibrations
HP 850363
for 75 0 type-N female connector calibrations
HP 85036B
for type-N female or type-N male 75 6) connector calibrations
HP 85033D
for 3.5 mm female or 3.5 mm male 50 tI connector
calibrations
HP 85039B
for Type-F 75 61 connector calibrations
NOTE
If you are going to be using calibration standards other than the default (female type-N), you must
select the type of connector type by pressing ICALl Ca3, Kf% and then selecting the appropriate
type.
