Abstract
The invention relates to a calibration array (10; 50) for calibrating a network analyzer, the array having multiple calibration points (18, 20, 22, 24) for direct or indirect connection to a network analyzer, and a main body connected to said calibration points (18, 20, 22, 24), at least one of the calibration points (18, 20, 22, 24) being rotatable in relation to the main body.
Claims9
A calibration arrangement (10) for calibrating a network analyzer, comprising
- multiple calibration points (18, 20, 22, 24) for the direct or indirect connection to a network analyzer;
- a main body (10) which includes the calibration points (18, 20, 22, 24);
- wherein at least one of the calibration points (18, 20, 22, 24) is rotatable with respect at least one part of the main body (14, 16).
The calibration arrangement (10) as claimed in claim one of the preceding claims, wherein a spring (28) is arranged in the first main-body part and/or in the second main-body part.
The calibration arrangement (10) as claimed in one of the preceding claims, wherein at least one disk (30;
- 32;
- 34), in particular a plastic disk, is formed in the main body (12).
A method for operating a calibration arrangement (10) comprising multiple calibration points (18, 20, 22, 24), which includes the following steps:
- connecting one calibration point of the calibration arrangement (10) to a network analyzer for a match, a short, and/or an open, and carrying out the corresponding calibration;
- disconnecting the calibration arrangement (10) and the network analyzer;
- rotating one part of the calibration arrangement, which includes a calibration point for establishing a thru to the network analyzer;
- establishing a thru between the calibration arrangement (10) and the network analyzer.
