Problems solved by technology

[0003] To measure the amplitude-frequency and phase-frequency characteristics of a network, it is generally necessary to use a vector network analyzer for measurement. However, the vector network analyzer is complex in technology and high in cost, and the price of the simplest configuration is more than 10,000 yuan
For scientific research institutes or enterprises that study microwave radio frequency, it will cost a lot to configure several such vector network analyzers.
In addition, although ordinary spectrum analysis instruments have the ability to measure amplitude frequency and phase frequency, they are powerless to measure the vector characteristics of vector networks, thus causing the embarrassing situation that spectrum analysis instruments cannot be fully used

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a vector network, in particular to a measuring device and a measuring method for a vector network. Background technique [0002] With the development of modern technology, the communication system is becoming more and more complex. In order to improve the overall performance of the communication system, only measuring the amplitude-frequency transmission characteristics of the equipment can no longer meet the system design requirements. The accurate measurement of more vector parameter characteristics can improve the system performance. more and more important. [0003] To measure the amplitude-frequency and phase-frequency characteristics of a network, it is generally necessary to use a vector network analyzer for measurement. However, a vector network analyzer is complex in technology and high in cost, and the price of the simplest configuration is more than 10,000 yuan. However, for scientific research institutes or enterpr...
