prHD 467.1.4 S1

Methods of measurement for radio equipment used in satellite earth stations - Part 1: Measurements common to sub-systems and combinations of sub-sytems - Section 4: Measurement in the baseband prHD 467.1.4 S1

Scope

Deals with basic measurements which are equally applicable to a sub-system such as an amplifier, or to a combination of sub-systems assembled to simulate a satellite earth station. Methods of measurements are described for the following parameters: -input and output impedance (return loss); -input and output levels; -baseband gain or loss; -amplitude/frequency characteristic; -group-delay/frequency characteristic; -non-linear amplitude distortion; -differential gain and phase distortion.
