Procedure
Source/Splitter Characterization
1. Connect the equipment as shown in Figure 2-32. Use the function
generator as the source. Connect one of the Agilent 8482A power
sensors to Channel A of the power meter. This will be the “reference”
sensor. Connect the other Agilent 8482A power sensor to Channel B
of the power meter. This will be the “buried” sensor.

2. Zero and calibrate both power sensors.
3. On the power meter, set the Channel A calibration factor to the
calibration factor of the reference sensor for 100 kHz.
4. On the power meter, set the Channel B calibration factor to 100%.
Do not change this calibration factor during this test.
5. Set the function generator frequency to 100 kHz and amplitude to
–4 dBm.
6. Adjust the function generator amplitude to obtain a Channel A
