E8362/3/4C

Test port input continued

Group delay

Description Specification Supplemental information (typical)

Aperture (selectable) (frequency span)/(number of points – 1)

Maximum aperture 20% of frequency span

Range 0.5

x (1/minimum aperture)

Maximum delay Limited to measuring no more than 180° of

phase change within the minimum aperture.

1. Group delay is computed by measuring the phase change within a specified

frequency step (determined by the frequency span and the number of points per sweep).

Frequency = 1 GHz

S11 = 0; S21 = 1; S12 = 0; S22 = 0

IF Bandwidth = 10 Hz; Average factor = 1

Cal power = -12 dBm; Meas power = -12 dBm; Electrical length = 10 m

The following graph shows characteristic group

delay accuracy with type-N full 2-port calibra-

tion and a 10 Hz IF bandwidth. Insertion loss is

assumed to be less than 2 dB and electrical length

to be 10 m.

In general, the following formula can be used to

determine the accuracy, in seconds, of a specific

group delay measurement:

±Phase accuracy (deg)/[360 x Aperture (Hz)]

Depending on the aperture and device length, the

phase accuracy used is either incremental phase

accuracy or worse case phase accuracy.
