11-7 Relative Measurements using CW Display

11-7 Relative Measurements using CW Display
For many phase-sensitive applications, absolute phase shift of a cable is not as critical as the
phase matching among multiple cables. For this application, the Vector Network Analyzer
relative phase measurement is preferred.
The operations for relative measurements are described in the following steps.
1. From the CW menu, preset the Vector Voltmeter for relative (by an amount)
measurements by pressing the Clear Reference soft key.
2. Connect the first DUT (device under test).
3. Save the measurement result of the first DUT by pressing the Save New Reference soft
key.
4. As shown in Figure
reference window and converts the main measurement window to display the difference
between the current measurement and the saved reference. In other words, saving a
reference will normalize the results to the current measurement. When relative
measurements are displayed, REL is indicated in the main measurement window.
