G r o u p D e l a y Group delay is computed by measuring the phase change within a
frequency step (determined by the frequency span, and the number of points
per sweep).
Aperture:
Maximum aperture:
20%
of frequency spun
Minimum aperture: span) /(number of points 1)
Range:
The maximum delay is limited to measuring no more than of phase
change within the minimum aperture.
Range = minimum aperture)
Accuracy:
The following graph shows group delay accuracy at 1300 MHz with
type-N transmission calibration and 15 Hz bandwidth. Insertion loss is
assumed to be
and electrical length to be ten meters.
