Error term parameters

String parameters describing the different error terms, depending on the current calibration method; see table below. Each term contains one complex value (real and imaginary part) for each sweep point.

Range [def. unit]

The error terms consist of dimensionless complex numbers. The parameters must be transferred in full length and have the following meaning:

'DIRECTIVITY' – Directivity at port <port1_no>
'SRCMATCH' – Source match at port <port1_no>
'REFLTRACK' – Reflection tracking at port <port1_no>
'ISOLATION' – Isolation between port <port1_no> and <port2_no>
'LOADMATCH' – Load match at <port2_no>
'TRANSTRACK' – Transmission tracking between port <port1_no> and <port2_no>
'G11' ... 'G22' – G matrix elements, referenced to <port1_no> (irrespective of the values of <port1_no> and <port2_no>)
'H11' ... 'H22' – H matrix elements, referenced to <port2_no> (irrespective of the values of <port1_no> and <port2_no>)

*RST value

–
The analyzer provides a default calibration corresponding to a test setup which does not introduce any systematic errors; see [SENSe<Ch>:]CORRection:COLLect:SAVE:SELected:DEFault.

<port1_no>

Source port number. If the error term is not related to the source port, a dummy number can be used; e.g. CORR:CDAT 'TRANSTRACK', 0,1  

<port2_no>

Load port number. If the error term is not related to the load port, a dummy number can be used; e.g. CORR:CDAT 'REFLTRACK', 1, 0  

SCPI, Command Types

Device-specific, command or query

After a system error correction in one of the sweep types Power, Time, or CW Mode, the query returns two sets of correction data, corresponding to the fixed CW frequency and the CW frequency plus 1 Hz (minus 1 Hz if the CW frequency is equal to the maximum frequency of the analyzer).
