Signal separation devices are needed to separate the incident signal from the
transmitted/reî™…ected signal. The incident signal, which comes from the analyzer's source RF
output, is applied to the R channel receiver input. Meanwhile, the transmitted/reî™…ected signal
is applied to the A or B channel receiver input via a test p ort coupler (in a test set) or an RF
bridge.
