Abstract
A method is provided for calibrating a test system, including first and second test instruments. The method includes connecting a first test port of the first test instrument to a second test port of the second test instrument; generating a first RF signal using a first RF source of the first test instrument while a second RF source of the second test instrument is turned off; measuring first phase of the first RF signal at the first test port using first incident and reflected signals; generating a second RF signal using a second RF source of the second test instrument while the first RF source; measuring second phase of the second RF signal at the first test port using the second incident signal and reflected signals; determining a phase difference between the first and second phases; and adjusting the first and/or second RF source to remove the determined phase difference.
