Procedure 7 This procedure shows the setups and lists the steps to check the bandĆ
width. The procedure given is a manual method; therefore only a few freĆ
Bandwidth quency points are measured. If a more thorough characterization is desired,
the procedure can be automated.
There are three sections to the procedure: Measuring the Signal Source
Output, Measuring the System Frequency Response, and Calculating the
Sampling Head Frequency Response. The first two sections have their own
setĆups and involve making measurements. The third part mathematically
combines the results of the first two parts.
All three sections must be performed twice, once for the 0 Hz-40 GHz
frequency range and once for the 40 GHz-50 GHz frequency range.
Refer to Table 2Ć2 (at the beginning of Checks and Adjustments) for miniĆ
mum equipment specifications and typical equipment types recommended
in performing this procedure.
In this procedure, the term Signal Source" is used to refer to both the
Frequency Synthesizer used to test the 0 Hz-40 GHz range and the Sweep
Generator used to test the 40 GHz-50 GHz range.
Measurement Limits
The measurement limits for bandwidth are:
-3 dB ≤ Normalized Frequency Response ≤ +3 dB
Measuring the Signal Source Output
NOTE
Before beginning this test, powerĆon all test equipment (as listed in
Procedure 1) and allow it to warm up for at least 30 minutes.
ăStep 1:ăCalculate the correction factors to compensate for the adapter

(Wiltron SC4193) used on the Power Sensor input. Enter the data
supplied with the adapter and power sensor into Table 2Ć11 (located on
page 2Ć44). Use the following formula to calculate the result (adapter
correction factor) for each frequency entry and enter the result in the
Adapter Correction Factor columns of Tables 2Ć11, 2Ć12, and 2Ć13. See
Table 2Ć4 for example entries.

ăStep 3:ăConnect the Power Sensor to the Power Ref connector on the
Power Meter.
ăStep 4:ăPress the Zero key and wait for the zeroing routine to finish.
ăStep 5:ăPress the Cal (Shifted Zero) key and then key in the Ref Cal
Factor of the Power Sensor (printed on the Power Sensor) using the
Data Entry arrow keys.
ăStep 6:ăPress the Enter key and verify that the Power Meter displays the
message CAL*****".
The Power Meter is now calibrated to accurately perform power
measurements.
ăStep 7:ăPress the Cal Fac button (Shift, Freq) then key in 100% and
then press Enter.
ăStep 8:ăPress the dBm/W button, if required to make the Power Meter
indicate measurements in dBm, and then disconnect the Power Sensor
from the Power Ref Connector on the Power Meter.

Measuring the System Frequency Response

To begin the second part of this procedure, set up the Mainframe and samĆ
pling head as shown in the figure below. Prior to performing any measureĆ
ment, you must warm up the instrument. This requires that the PRINCIPAL
POWER SWITCH and ON/STANDBY switch of the instrument be set to ON
for twenty minutes.
