General use and features:
•System Z0 should be set to 1 Ω before calibration. Offset Z0 and terminal impedance in the calibration standard definition also should be set to 1 Ω (See System Impedance Z0).
•Waveguide calibration uses two offset short standards instead of a combination of short and open standards. Typically, 1/8λ0 and 3/8λ0 offset short standards are used, where λ0 — wave length in waveguide at the mean frequency.
In waveguide calibration, one of the offset short standards is assigned as the open standard. Therefore, the GUI contains 3/8 Offset Short and 1/8 Offset Short softkey. To perform calibration, connect the appropriate waveguide to the analyzer port and press the desired softkey. |
