Embodiment Construction
[0080] Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing and specific embodiment the present invention is described in further detail:
[0081] The invention proposes a noise figure measurement method based on a vector network analyzer and a noise source, which can remove the influence of port matching on the noise figure measurement, and trace the measurement accuracy to the noise source. The dynamic range of noise figure measured by this method can be from 0dB to 50dB, far exceeding the measurement range of noise meter and spectrum analyzer.
[0082] This method needs to be equipped with a noise source, which is used as a standard excitation source for noise power measurement. The noise source has a calibrated Excess Noise Ratio, which is defined as:
[0083]
[0084] In the formula: ENR—the excess noise ratio of the noise source;
[0085] T h — the equivalent output noise temperature when the noise source is turned on;
[0086] T c —The equivalent output noise temperatu...
