Interpolated Error Correction

You may want to use interpolated er ror c or re ction w hen y ou c hoos e a subset of a frequency

range that you already corrected, when you change the number of points, or when you

change to CW. This feature also allows you to change the parameters in a 2-port corr ection,

such as IF bandwidth, power, or sweep time. The analyzer calculates the systematic errors

from the errors of the original correction.

To activate interpolated measurement correction, press so that

ON is selected, and so that ON is selected. When interpolation is

in use, the notation C will appear on the analyzer display.
