Application Note Comparison of / and for Noise Figure Measurements Signal Analyzer /
1. Overview This document describes the comparisons with Standard about the noise figure measurement. The noise figure measurement option has measurement modes, so this document compares each. Anritsu products are (. GHz model with Opt-017 and 069) and ( GHz model with Opt-017 and 068). There is attenuator to the input port of equipment in the measurement, because we are considering the measurement uncertainty by impedance mismatching between the equipment. Therefore, it is the measurement situation using same attenuator and same. The following table shows the difference with. These detailed data refer to the later pages.
