Basic Measurement Procedures
To better understanding how to use the E5070/E5071A, this section describes the basic
measurement procedure using the E5070/E5071A and presents an example of the
transmission measurement of a bandpass filter.
Basic Measurement Flow
STEP 1. Determining measurement conditions
o Presetting the E5070/E5071A
o Selecting the S-parameter
o Selecting the data format
o Specifying the frequency range
o Specifying the number of measurement points
o Specifying the power level
o Specifying the IF bandwidth
STEP 2. Calibration
o Specifying the calibration kit
o Selecting the calibration type
o Measuring the calibration data
o Making the error correction ON
o Saving the calibration data
STEP 3. Connecting the device under test (DUT)
o Connecting the device under test (DUT)
o Adjusting the scale
STEP 4. Analyzing measurement results
o Analysis using the markers
STEP 5. Outputting measurement results
o Storing the measurement file to a disk
