  • Abstract
    Vector Network Analyzers derive a large percentage of their accuracy from calibration. Assessing the uncertainty of that calibration can be difficult and time consuming. Not assessing the uncertainty can lead to inaccurate measurements. This paper compares the results of three VNA uncertainty assessment techniques. The techniques are Verification, Assurance and Time Domain.
