Making Measurements
Measuring S21 Forward Transmission using an Enhanced Response Calibration
To perform an enhanced transmission response calibration, you will need
one of the following calibration kits depending on the nominal impedance
of your analyzer:
NOTE By convention, cal kit labels in the analyzer indicate the sex of the port
with which they are used. For example, the default cal kit for the
analyzer is type-N female because the front panel RF ports are female
(the calibration standards, in turn, have male connectors).
NOTE If you are going to be using calibration standards other than the default
(female type-N), you must select a calibration kit to match the port(s) at
your calibration reference plane. Do this by pressing
and then selecting the appropriate type.
