Correction Based on User-Specified Frequency Points

Description of Correction Based on User-Specified Frequency Points
Correction based on user-specified frequency points involves performing
open/short/load correction at frequency points specified by user. You can
specify up to 201 frequency points as needed.
For examples and instructions on using the correction features, see
Functions" on page
In addition to the open/short correction features, the E4980A/AL provides a
load correction feature that allows you to carry out, at your specified frequency
points, load correction using a transfer function determined based on the
relationships between a particular standard's reference values (pre-measured,
known values) and the standard's actual measurements. With load correction,
you can compensate for errors that cannot be compensated using open/short
correction.
Open/short/load correction can be performed at up to 201 specified frequency
points, as shown in
the SPOT No. fields. To specify the standard's reference values, use the A and B
fields. Before entering the standard's reference values, you need to set the
measurement function using the FUNC field. To obtain the standard's actual
measurements, use the softkey, which appears when you move the cursor into
the FREQ field.
