Equivalent circuit measurement 

 

8.2.1 

44B44B

Impedance analyzer with equivalent circuit calculation 

 

Impedance analyzers like Agilent 4294A or 4395A can determine directly the series or 
parallel equivalent circuit by measuring the magnitude and the phase of the impedance 
of the connected antenna. 

The antenna has to be at the final mounting position to consider all parasitic effects like 

metal influence on quality factor, inductance and additional capacitance. 

The antenna needs to be connected to the analyzer by using an appropriate test fixture 
that does not influence any antenna parameters. 

59B58B59B58B

The analyzer has to be calibrated (open, short and load compensation at the calibration 
plane) and the test fixture needs to be compensated (open, short compensation at the 
connection points) before each measurement. Please refer to device manual on how to 
carry out these steps. 

 

Settings: 

Θ

,

Z

 

Start frequency: 1 MHz 

    Stop frequency: above self-resonance frequency of the antenna (point where 
antenna impedance is real: pure resistance) 

 

Advantage: 

Fast and simple method 

 

Disadvantages: 

Additional equipment required 

Low accuracy of the measurement which especially results from the loss resistance for 

high quality factor coils (Q

pc

 > 60).

Network analyzer 

 

This section briefly describes the determination of the antenna equivalent circuit using a 
network analyzer without any equivalent circuit functionality. 

The antenna has to be at the final mounting position to consider all parasitic effects like 

metal influence on quality factor, inductance and additional capacitance. 

The antenna needs to be connected to the analyzer by using an appropriate test fixture 
that does not influence the antenna parameters. 

The analyzer has to be calibrated (open, short and load compensation at the calibration 
plane) and the test fixture needs to be compensated (open, short compensation at the
