The following example requires a calibration kit with a male Through standard with
known transmission characteristics for the related test port connector type and gender.
With a single Through, it is possible to perform a transmission normalization, compen-
sating for a frequency-dependent attenuation and phase shift in the signal paths.
Due to the R&S
ZND's calibration wizard, calibration is a straightforward, guided proc-
ess.
1. Replace the DUT by the Through standard of your calibration kit. Make sure to dis-
connect all calibration units.
2. Select CHANNEL – [CAL] > "Start... (Manual)" to open the "Calibration Setting"
wizard.
3. Select the port combination Port 1 (P1) and Port 2 (P2) and the calibration type
"Trans Norm". Make sure to define port 1 as the source port.
Tip:
For a unidirectional R&S
ZND, only port 1 can be the source port. Hence cali-
brations that require both ports as driving port are not available.
4. Select "Next" to proceed to the next page of the "Calibration Setting" wizard.
5. Select the test port connector type and gender (here: N 50 Ω, female, correspond-
ing to a male Through standard), and the calibration kit (here: R&S
ZV-Z121).
