How Measurements are Calculated
Figure 1-9 details how measurements are calculated. It shows the order in
which the various power meter functions are implemented in the
measurement calculation.
Figure 1-9: How Measurements are Calculated
The MEASure commands in this figure can be replaced with the FETCh?
and READ? commands.
Note All references to channel B in the above diagram refer to the
HP E4419B only. The MEAS[1|2]:POW:AC? and
MEAS[1|2]:POW:AC:REL? are the only commands relevant to the
HP E4418B.
