5.5.6 Scalar Power Calibration
The purpose of a scalar power calibration is to ensure accurate source power levels
and power readings at a particular position (calibration plane) in the test setup. Scalar
power calibration is different from the system error correction described in
Chapter 5.5,
"Calibration" , on page 132.
A power calibration is required for accurate measurement of wave quantities or ratios
(see section
Chapter 5.1.6, "Data Flow" , on page 73). For best accuracy, choose a cali-
bration method according to the table below.
Calibration of S-parameters
S-parameters are not affected by a scalar power calibration. S-parameters are ratios of
incident and outgoing waves: for linear DUTs, they do not depend on the absolute
power. For measurements on non-linear DUTs, a SMARTerCal is recommended.
A SMARTerCal is also appropriate for frequency conversion measurements. For
detailed information, refer to
Chapter 5.5.7, "SMARTerCal" , on page 164.
