Anritsu 37xxxE TIME DOMAIN TIME DOMAIN MEASUREMENTS

Next, let us look at a complex circuit. A resistive impedance change
R<Z0and a shunt capacitance and series inductance. These impedance
changes are shown in the time domain for the lowpass-impulse re-
sponse, lowpass-step response, and bandpass-impulse response (Figure
9-8).
The 37xxxE processes bandpass-impulse-response data to obtain
phasor-impulse response. This becomes most advantageous where both
a reactive reflection and an impedance change occur at the same loca-
tion. The real part of the time-domain response shows the location of
impedance level changes, while the imaginary part shows the type of
reactive discontinuity. Phasor-impulse response displays one disconti-
nuity at a time (Figure 9-9).
