Other calibrations
Besides using a Test Set Cal, individual instrument
states and their corresponding calibrations can be
saved and recalled for use with specific measure-
ment paths. For example, to improve measurement
throughput, one signal path could be tested using a
response calibration, while all other paths are tested
with a Test Set Cal using two-port calibration.
Note: the SelfCal feature is only supported with
Test Set Cals.
A variety of calibration types are available and
described below:
ES models only
• Two-port calibration
Compensates for frequency response, source
and load match, and directivity errors while
making S-parameter measurements of transmis-
sion (S
21
, S
12
) and reflection (S
11
, S
22
).
Compensates for transmission crosstalk when
the Isolation on OFF softkey is toggled to ON.
Requires short, open, load, and through stan-
dards.
ET and ES models: transmission measurements
• Normalization
Provides simultaneous magnitude and phase
correction of transmission frequency-response
errors. Requires a through connection. Used for
both narrowband and broadband detection.
Does not support calibration interpolation.
• Response
Simultaneous magnitude and phase correction
of frequency response errors for transmission
measurements. Requires a through standard.
• Response and isolation
Compensates for frequency response and cross-
talk errors. Requires a load termination on both
test ports and a through standard.
• Enhanced response
Compensates for frequency response and source
match errors. Requires short, open, load, and
through standards.
ET and ES models: reflection measurements
• One-port calibration
Compensates for frequency response, directivity,
and source-match errors. Requires short, open,
and load standards.
Calibration kits
Data for several standard calibration kits are
stored in the instrument for use by the calibration
routines. They include:
• 3.5 mm (85033D)
• Type-N (85032B/E)
• 7 mm (85031B)
• 7-16 (85038A)
In addition, you can also describe the standards
for a user-defined calibration kit (for example,
open-circuit capacitance coefficients, offset-short
length, or through-standard loss).
For more information about calibration kits avail-
able from Agilent Technologies, consult the Agilent
87050E Configuration Guide, Agilent literature
number 5968-4765E.
Key network analyzer options
Step attenuator (Option 1E1)
Adds a built-in 60 dB step attenuator to transmis-
sion/reflection (ET) models to extend the output
power range to –60 dBm. The attenuator is stan-
dard in S-parameter (ES) models.
