NOTE

Measuring Transmission Response

This section uses an example measurement to describe how to calibrate
for and make a basic transmission response measurement. This example
uses an enhanced response calibration. See the table below for a list of
all possible calibration choices for a transmission response
measurement.
An optimum calibration is critical for achieving best measurement
accuracy. Refer to Chapter 6, "Calibrating for Increased Measurement
Accuracy," for detailed information about all of the various aspects of
calibration.

This example measurement uses the default instrument parameters for
a transmission measurement. If your particular transmission
measurement requires specific parameters (such as frequency range,
source power level, number of data points, and sweeptime), enter them
