N8480 Series Power Sensors Operating and Service Guide
Calibration Factor and Reflection Coefficient
Calibration Factor (CF) and Reflection Coefficient (Rho) data are provided
on a data sheet included with the power sensor. This data is unique to
each power sensor. If you have more than one power sensor, match the
serial number on the data sheet with the serial number on the power
sensor you are using. The CF corrects for the frequency response of the
power sensor. The Keysight EPM Series, EPM- P Series, or P- Series power
meters automatically read the CF data stored in the power sensor’s
EEPROM and use it to make the corrections.
Reflection Coefficient (Rho, or
r
) relates to the SWR according to the
following formula:
Typical measurement uncertainties of the Calibration Factor (CF) are
listed in the following tables. There is only one set of CF data used for
both high and low range of each power sensors. Therefore, there is only
one set of measurement uncertainty data available. The typical
measurement uncertainty data listed in this guide is meant to help users
on the measurement uncertainty estimation. These values are only a
guideline and are not to be used in any accurate uncertainty calculations.
For accurate measurement uncertainty values, please refer to the
measurement report

of the specific power sensor.
