Optimizing PerformanceUsing Flatness CorrectionCreating a User Flatness Correction ArrayIn this example, you will create a user flatness correction array. The flatness correction arraycontains ten frequency correction pairs (amplitude correction values for each specified frequency),from 500 MHz to 1 GHz.An Agilent N1911A/12A or E4419A/B power meter and E4413A power sensor are used to measurethe RF output amplitude at the specified correction frequencies and transfer the results to the signalgenerator. (A U2000 Series power meter/sensor could be used in lieu of the power meter and E4413Apower sensor.) The signal generator reads the power level data from the power meter, calculates thecorrection values, and stores the correction pairs in the user flatness correction array.If you do not have the required Agilent power meter, or if your power meter does not have a LAN,GPIB, or USB interface, you can enter correction values manually.NOTEOn the N5183A, if the setup is using an external leveling configuration, the equipment setupin “Required Equipment” on page 92 assumes that the steps necessary to correctly level theRF output have been followed. If you have questions about external leveling, refer to “UsingExternal Leveling (N5183A Only)” on page 104.Required Equipment• Agilent N1911A/12A or E4419A/B power meter (a power meter is not required with theU2000A/01A/02A/04A Power Sensor)• Agilent E4413A E Series CW power sensor or U2000A/01A/02A/04A Power Sensor• GPIB, LAN, or USB interface cables, as required• adapters and cables, as requiredNOTEFor operating information on a particular power meter/sensor, refer to its operating guide.Connect the EquipmentConnect the equipment as shown in “Connect the Equipment” on page 93.NOTEDuring the process of creating the user flatness correction array, the power meter isremotely controlled by the signal generator.92 Agilent N5161A/62A/81A/82A/83A MXG Signal Generators User’s Guide
