Standing Wave Ratio (SWR) and Reflection Coefficient (Rho)

Performance Test

This section does not establish preset SWR test procedures since there are several test methods and different equipment available for testing the SWR or reflection coefficient. Therefore, the actual accuracy of the test equipment must be accounted for when measuring against instrument specifications to determine a pass or fail condition. The test system used must not exceed the system Rho uncertainties shown in the following tables when testing the Agilent E-series E9300 power sensors.

Table 3: Power Sensor SWR and Reflection Coefficient for the E9300A

		Frequency			System Rho	Actual		Maximum
					Uncertainty	Measurement		Rho

		10	MHz to 30 MHz		± 0.010		0.070

		30	MHz to 2 GHz		± 0.010		0.061

		2 GHz to 14 GHz			± 0.010		0.087

		14	GHz to 16 GHz		± 0.010		0.099

		16	GHz to 18 GHz		± 0.010		0.115

		Frequency			System Rho	Actual		Maximum
					Uncertainty	Measurement		Rho

		10	MHz to 30 MHz		± 0.010			0.070

		30	MHz to 2 GHz		± 0.010			0.061

		2 GHz to 6 GHz			± 0.010			0.087


Caution		DC voltages in excess of the maximum value (5 Vdc) can damage the
		sensing diode.
