Learning to Make Reflection Measurements
Measuring Other Reflection Characteristics
You can derive several important filter parameters from the measurement shown on the
analyzer display. The following set of procedures is a continuation of the previous
reflection measurement procedure.
Measuring Reflection Coefficient
1. Press to recall the calibrated reflection measurement
that you saved earlier in this procedure.
2. Press so the analyzer shows the same
data in terms of reflection coefficient, as shown in Figure 2-12.
The units “mU” displayed on the analyzer are “milli-units,” where “units” or “U” is used
to indicate that the parameter is unitless (as opposed to dB in log magnitude format).
For example, 200 mUnits = 0.2.
