Making Measurements
Measuring S11 Reflection Port 1 using a One-Port Calibration
Chapter 6 provides detail about when this calibration is necessary, and
information about other calibrations available for S
11
measurements. If
you wish to perform a one-port reflection calibration on your instrument
for an S
11
measurement, execute the following steps:
1. Press .
2. The instrument will prompt you to connect three standards (open,
short and load) to port 1. See Figure 3-18
Figure 3-18 Open, Short, Load Connections
3. Press after connecting each standard.
4. The analyzer will measure each standard and then calculate new
calibration coefficients. The message "Calibration complete."
will appear for a few seconds when the analyzer is done calculating
the new error correction array.
NOTE Changing sweep frequencies (and other source parameters) may affect
your calibration. See Chapter 6 for more information.
