We use a Bilog antenna, Horn antenna, cables, and a HP 8562A
Spectrum Analyser to measure signals at frequencies between 30MHz
and 3GHz.
We need a set up to verify the operation of our
measurement system (antenna, cables and spectrum analyser) before
and after every job. We would be interested in receiving any
information about possible cost effective methods (the HP 85640A
tracking generator for this SA is beyond our budget) for testing
our cables and antennas between 30MHz and at least 3GHz.
Ideally we would like to be able to plot the transfer function of
the antennas and cables, but measurements at a number of spot
frequencies (e.g. using a comb generator) may be adequate. We
would like to be able to test up to 14GHz, but realise that this
may be prohibitively expensive.
Thanks for any advice.
