Performance Test
Standing Wave Ratio (SWR) and Reflection Coefficient (Rho)
performance test
This section does not establish preset SWR test procedures since there are several
test methods and different equipment available for testing the SWR or reflection
coefficient. Therefore, the actual accuracy of the test equipment must be
accounted for when measuring against instrument specifications to determine a
pass or fail condition. The test system used must not exceed the system Rho
uncertainties shown in the following tables when testing the Keysight E-Series
E9300 power sensors.
