Correcting for RF Path Loss
Approximate time: N/A (this procedure is simply a field entry).
The settings you make in the following procedure must be re-entered after a
power-cycle, instrument preset, or HP-IB reset ("*RST).
It is highly recommended that RF path loss is corrected for in the following
manner.
NOTE:
The Test Set’s attenuator auto-ranging algorithm, used for adjusting gain in the RF analyzer
path, estimates the expected power level from the phone using the open loop power control
formula. External path loss, entered in the procedure below, is used by the auto-ranging
algorithm to ensure the analyzer is not overdriven or underdriven.
