Measuring Reflection Response
This section uses an example measurement to describe how to calibrate
for and make a basic reflection response measurement. In this example,
a user-defined one-port calibration is used. See the table below for a list
of all possible calibration choices for a reflection 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.
