Define standards
A glossary of standard definition parameters used
with the Agilent 8510 is included in this section.
Each parameter is described and appropriate con-
versions are listed for implementation with the
8510. To illustrate, a calibration kit for WR-62 rec-
tangular waveguide (operating frequency range
12.4 to 18 GHz) will be defined as shown in Table
1. Subsequent sections will continue to develop
this waveguide example.
The mathematical models are developed for each
standard in accordance with the standard defini-
tion parameters provided by the 8510. These stan-
dard definition parameters are shown in Figure 2.
