A network’s behavior is linear when (1) a linear change in the input results in a linear change in the output, and (2) the output, resulting from multiple input signals, is the same as the sum of the outputs resulting from independent input signals. Some examples of linear networks are filters, amplifiers, cables and isolators. A network analyzer measurement system can be divided into four major parts shown in Figure 2: 1. A signal source providing the incident signal 2. Signal separation devices to separate the incident, reflected and transmitted signals, and then down converts the microwave signals to a lower intermediate (IF) signal 3. A receiver to attain the IF signal and down convert it to DC 4. A signal processor and display section that processes the data and displays information on a CRT Incident Transmitted Reflected DUT Reflection (Reflected/incident): Input SWR Return loss Input/output impedance Reflection coefficient S-Parameters S11 , S22 Figure 1.

Network analyzer configuration The Agilent Technologies 8510 network analyzer consists of a family of compatible products where each part is a separate system component. Each complete system includes the 8510 network analyzer, a test set, and compatible sources (measurement accessories are also needed to complete the measurement setup), shown in Figure 3. The frequency range of the measurement system is determined by the test set or the compatible source’s lesser frequency. Example: if a 50 GHz test set is used with a 20 GHz source, the maximum frequency measured is 20 GHz. 8510 network analyzer Receiver/detectorprocessor/display 8510 VNA system = Test set 851X + + Signal separation Source 8360 Stimulus Figure 3. 8510 measurement systems are made up of modular components, the 8510 network analyzer, a test set and a compatible source.

Time domain capabilities require Option 010 on the 8510. Time domain option can be upgraded by ordering 85012C for 8510C. 2. Pulse capabilities require Option 008 on the 8510 working with either 85110L or 85110A pulsed-RF S-parameter test set. Pulse option on the 8510 can be upgraded by ordering 85111B for 8510C. Pulse capability is not available with 8510A or 8510B. Test Sets Table 3.
