Abstract :
Large signal analyzers measure calibrated waves. Besides the classical linear SOLT-calibration, this requires two additional calibration steps: a power and a phase calibration over frequency. Nowadays phase relations can be calibrated with a frequency resolution of 2MHz. The aim of this paper is to obtain a fine frequency grid phase calibration for the large signal network analyser based on a coarse grid phase calibration. The approach uses a frequency conversion performed with a crystal detector
