Basic Measurement Procedures

To better understanding how to use the E5071C, this section describes the basic measurement procedure using the E5071C and presents an example of the transmission measurement of a bandpass filter.

Basic Measurement Flow

1. Determining measurement conditions

•  Presetting the E5071C 

• Select:

• • S-parameter

  • Data format

  • Frequency range

  • Number of measurement points

  • Power level

  • IF bandwidth

2. Calibration

•  Specify calibration kit

• Select calibration type

• Measure calibration data

• Make error correction ON 

• Save calibartion data

3. Connecting the Device Under Test (DUT)

• Connect DUT

• Adjust the scale

4. Analyzing measurement results

• Analysis using markers

5. Outputting measurement results

•  Store measurement file to a disk
