Overview
The E5071C has a function to calibrate the gain of the individual receivers
in absolute value measurement.
The receiver calibration function calibrates the gain of the receiver by
inputting the output power of a stimulus port that has been assigned a
correct value by the power calibration to the port of the receiver you need
to calibrate.
Receiver calibration is valid only for the parameters of absolute
•
value measurement.
Turning Receiver Error Correction ON/OFF
The receiver calibration data are acquired for each channel/test port, so
the gain error correction can be turned ON/OFF independently for any
channel or port.
The status of the gain error correction for each channel is indicated by one
of the symbols in the channel status bar in the lower part of the window,
as shown in the following table.
