Frequency Domain Point-in-Pulse Measurements
This chapter contains measurement calibration and measurement pro cedures to displaythe
pulsed-RF S-parameters versus frequency.
Measurement Calibration for Point-in-Pulse
Measurement calibration for point-in-pulse is accomplished in exactly the same way as for the
standard HP 8510.
