Reflection S-Parameter Measurement
In a reflection measurement, the analyzer transmits a stimulus signal to the input
port of the device under test (DUT) and measures the reflected wave. Different
trace formats allow you to express and display the results, depending on what
you want to learn from the data. Only one analyzer test port is required for reflec-
tion measurements.
In principle, a reflection measurement involves the same steps as a transmission
measurement. Note the following differences:
●
The basic test setup for reflection measurements involves a single DUT and
analyzer port. For instance, you can connect the input of your DUT to port 1 of
the analyzer as shown below.
