ZNB, a test setup with an external generator and a combiner is
required.

Lower Tone
The lower tone signal is generated at port 1, the upper tone is provided by the external
generator. Both signals are combined externally and fed to the DUT input. The intermo-
dulation quantities can be measured at the DUT output (transmitted wave b2). It is pos-
sible to interchange the ports no. 1 and 2.
For a R&S
ZNB/ZNBT with two internal sources, you can use any combination of ana-
lyzer ports that are supplied by different internal sources to generate the lower and
upper tones (see
Chapter 5.7.13, "Internal Second Source"
lowing example, port 3 of a R&S
ZNB replaces the external generator. For a
R&S
ZNBT with more than 8 ports the lower and upper tone could be provided by ports
1 and 9, for example.
