Abstract:Vector network analyzer (VNA) measurements are often stated without an indication of the estimated uncertainty. Understanding the uncertainty can lead to understanding the sources of uncertainty and targeting improvements in the metrology to address the largest sources.Connector repeatability in manually probed measurements can be a primary source of uncertainty with this metrology. A measurement capability assessment provides the method for evaluating the total uncertainty. Evaluation of the probe launch and … Show more
