R&S ESU
The permissible setting range is -200 dB to +200 dB in steps of 0.1 dB. Positive off-
sets handle a subsequent amplifier and negative offsets an attenuator pad.
The default setting is 0 dB; offsets <> 0 are marked by the activated enhancement

Transmission Measurement

The transmission characteristic of a two-port network is measured. The external
generator serves as a signal source. It is connected to the input connector of the
DUT. The input of the R&S ESU is fed from the output of the DUT.

A calibration can be carried out to compensate for the effects of the test setup (e.g.
frequency response of connecting cables).
