 Calibration Kit R&S ZV-WR12 is suited for the frequency converter R&S ZVA-Z90E (frequency
range: 60 GHz to 90 GHz)
 Calibration Kit R&S ZV-WR15 is suited for the frequency converter R&S ZVA-Z75 (frequency
range: 50 GHz to 75 GHz)
 Calibration Kit R&S ZV-WR03 is suited for the frequency converter R&S ZVA-Z325 (frequency
range: 220 GHz to 325 GHz)
The following sections describe the standards in the waveguide calibration kits and their use for system
error corrections.
Calibration Kit R&S ZV-WR10
The waveguide calibration kit R&S ZV-WR10 allows to calibrate network analyzers for test setups
involving frequency converters, in particular R&S ZVA-Z110 or R&S ZVA-Z110E.
The calibration kit contains the following standards:
 A Short standard which also serves as a Reflect standard
 A (Fixed) Match standard
 A Shim that contains a short transmission line causing a λ/4 phase shift around the center
frequency of the converters operating range and a 180 deg phase shift of the reflecting coefficient.
 A Sliding Match standard (kit 1307.7100.11 only), providing more accurate results than the Fixed
Match standard – at higher test effort.
The following table provides an overview of the available standards for rectangular waveguide calibration
and the technical implementation using the calibration kit.
