Correlation between TDR Oscilloscope and VNA Option TDR
应用文章
Time domain analysis (TDA) is a common method for evaluating transmission lines and has been performed using a time domain reflectometer (TDR) oscilloscope. Meanwhile vector network analyzer (VNA) based TDR measurements are gaining attention as an alternative method for time domain analysis. The E5071C option TDR provides a one-box solution for VNA based TDR measurements and offers unique features that are not available in traditional TDR oscilloscopes. The purpose of this application note is to validate the use of the E5071C option TDR by comparing data measured using the E5071C and a Keysight Technologies, Inc. 86100C TDR oscilloscope.
