Abstract

Disclosed is a method of equalization of a vector/signal analyzer including: providing a structured test signal within a selected frequency range. The structured test signal includes a plurality of frequency components each having a respective amplitude and phase. The method includes inputting the test signal to the analyzer; the analyzer operating to condition the test signal; determining information representative of frequency distortion of the conditioned test signal introduced by the analyzer; generating a set of equalization coefficients based on the information representative of the frequency distortion, the set of coefficients corresponding to the selected frequency range; and storing the set of equalization coefficients and the correspondence of the set of coefficients to the selected frequency range.
