Standard Class Assi gnments

Standard Class Assign ments

Class assignment organizes calibration standards into a forma t compatible with the er ror

models used in the measurement calibrati on. A clas s or group of cl asses corresponds to the

systematic errors to be removed from the measured netw ork analyzer response. Table A-1

through A-3 list the classes of the devices in the kit for various network analyzers. This

information resides on the calibration definitions disk included in the kit.
