Abstract :
Techniques for evaluating delay lines with an automatic network analyzer are described. Extremely precise values of the delay can be obtained by an iterative process which uses final measurement frequencies spaced by integral multiples of the reciprocal delay. The magnitude of leakage and triple-delayed transmissions are determined from measurements which are also necessary to obtain accurate values of insertion loss.
