Can anyone tell me if the two port TRL calibration on the E5071B (Firmware Rev 6.01) is full TRL including switch reflection or is TRL* without correction for switch reflection.
The reason I ask is that during the TRL calibration, I don't see any measurements of switch reflection for the Line or Thru standards. The display only shows the four S parameters, unlike the 8510 which for the Line and Thru standards displays the four S parameters and the forward and reverse switch reflections during calibration.
The ENA E5071B does provide true-TRL calibration capability (and not TRL*) since it has two reference receivers, ie., R1 and R2.
What you are seeing are differences between the ENA and 8510 in what traces are displayed after performing a TRL cal.
2. the ENA display (during cal) was similar to that shown in Figure 4-40 , page 148 in the User's Guide. Then chances are very good that you performed the calibration correctly.
