4. Set any other measurement parameters that you want for the device measurement: power, number of
points, IF bandwidth.
5. To perform a receiver error correction, press:
Cal CALIBRATE MENU
NOTE You can save or store the measurement correction to use for later measurements. Refer to
Chapter 4 , "Printing, Plotting, and Saving Measurement Results"
6. This completes the receiver calibration for transmission measurements. You can connect and measure
your device under test.
NOTE The accuracy of the receiver calibration will be nearly the same as the test port power
accuracy; and the test port power accuracy can be significantly improved by performing a
power meter source calibration, as described later in
Calibration" on page
Calibrations at powers other than 0 dBm are possible. Receiver calibration normalizes the trace to the value
set for the reference level. For example, to do a receiver calibration at 10 dBm, set the source to10 dBm,
set the reference level to 10 dBm, then perform the receiver calibration.
