Introduction
High Performance Handheld S-Parameters
Anritsu introduces the MS202x/3xC VNA Master + Spectrum Analyzer, the industry’s broadest frequency handheld solution
to address cable, antenna, component and signal analysis needs in the field: with frequency coverage from 5 kHz to 6/20 GHz.
Equally impressive, this broadband measurement tool offers the industry’s first 12-term error correction algorithm in a truly
handheld, battery-operated, rugged multi-function instrument. And now the MS2036/38C models include a powerful spectrum
analyzer which multiplies user convenience by combining spectrum analysis with the VNA into a single measurement powerhouse
for the harsh RF and physical environments of field test. Whether it is for spectrum monitoring, broadcast proofing, interference
analysis, RF and microwave measurements, regulatory compliance, or 3G/4G and wireless data network measurements, this
VNA/Spectrum Analyzer marriage is the ideal instrument to making fast and reliable measurements in the field.

Uncertainty Curves for Round-Trip Cable Loss Measurements (1-Port)
Round-trip cable loss measurements are convenient for field personnel testing installed cable or waveguide runs. This one-port
technique provides one-way data after twice traversing the cable. The following two sets of uncertainty curves, less than 6 GHz
on the left and greater than 6 GHz on the right, present worst-case uncertainty by DUT Match (i.e., Log Mag) when using
VNA Master for one-port cable loss measurements. As a practical tip, consider using a two-port transmission measurement
technique to improve upon these one-port cable loss uncertainties.

These uncertainty curves show how frequency range, DUT Match, and cable loss impact worst-case uncertainty of round-trip cable loss measurements. The uncertainty curves,
separated by frequency range, are shown for DUT Match conditions of 20, 25, and 30 dB. For DUT Match of 30 dB and cable loss of 4-5 dB (reflection measurement of 8-10 dB)
the worst-case uncertainties are approximately ± 1 dB.

Time Domain (Option 0002) (includes Distance Domain Option 0501)

The VNA Master can also display the S-parameter measurements in the time or distance domain using lowpass or bandpass
processing analysis modes. The broadband frequency coverage coupled with 4001 data points means you can measure
discontinuities both near and far with unprecedented clarity for a handheld tool. With this option, you can simultaneously view
S-parameters in frequency, time, and distance domain to quickly identify faults in the field. Advanced features available with
this option include step response, phasor impulse, gating, and frequency gated in time. The option includes computational
routines that further enhance the Distance Domain results by compensating for cable loss, relative velocity of propagation,
and dispersion compensation in waveguide.

Secure Data Operation (Option 0007)

For highly secure data handling requirements, this software option prevents the storing of measurement setup or data
information onto any internal file storage location. Instead, setup and measurement information is stored ONLY to the
external USB memory location. A simple factory preset prepares the VNA Master for transportation while the USB memory
remains behind in the secure environment. The VNA Master cannot be switched between secure and non-secure operation by
the user once configured for secure data operation. As an additional security measure, with this option enabled the user can
choose to blank the frequency values displayed on the screen.

outside on a metallic surface. Frequency accuracy is enhanced for the Spectrum Analyzer when Options 0025 Interference

Balanced/Differential S-Parameters, 1-port (Option 0077)

As an alternative to a sampling oscilloscope, verifying the performance and identifying discontinuities in high-data-rate
differential cables is now possible with the VNA Master. After a full two-port calibration, connect your differential cable
directly to the two test ports and reveal the Sd1d1 performance, which is essentially differential return loss, or any of the other
differential S-Parameters, Sc1c1, Sd1c1, or Sc1d1. With optional time domain, you can convert frequency sweeps to distance. This
capability is especially valuable for applications in high data rate cables where balanced data formats are used to isolate noise
and interference.

Distance Domain (Option 0501) (included in Time Domain Option 0002)

Distance Domain Analysis is a powerful field test tool to analyze cables for faults, including minor discontinuities that may
occur due to a loose connection, corrosion, or other aging effects. By using Frequency Domain Reflectometry (FDR), the
VNA Master exploits a user-specified band of full power operational frequencies (instead of DC pulses from TDR approaches) to
more precisely identify cable discontinuities. The VNA Master converts S-parameters from frequency domain into distance
domain on the horizontal display axis, using a mathematical computation called Inverse Fourier Transform. Connect a
reflection at the opposite end of the cable and the discontinuities appear versus distance to reveal any potential maintenance
issues. When access to both ends of the cable is convenient, a similar distance domain analysis is available on transmission
measurements.

Option 0501 Distance Domain will improve your productivity with displays of the cable in terms of discontinuities versus
distance. This readout can then be compared against previous measurements (from stored data) to determine whether any
degradations have occurred since installation (or the last maintenance activity). More importantly, you will know precisely
where to go to fix the problem and so minimize or prevent downtime of the system.

Ancillary Module extends Optical Fiber Testing to Distance-to-Fault

The ODTF-1 module is primarily intended for field use by technicians and engineers responsible for the deployment and
maintenance of remote radio heads (RRH), and nicely complements the field diagnostic power of the VNA Master. The ODTF-1
module is fully compatible with the MS202x/3xC VNA Masters which are optionally equipped with the Time Domain Option
0002 or Distance Domain Option 0501. Field operation of the ODTF-1 module with the VNA Master requires the normal DTF
(RF/microwave) mode along with simple modification of some of the setup parameters such as Vp, cable loss, and frequency.
VNA Master users need only to connect a short cable between
the RF output of the VNA and the ODTF-1 module and
perform a 1-port calibration at the end of the cable. Essentially
the ODTF-1 module is simply a wavelength translator, RF test
signals in, RF signals returning. The same physics that apply to
the traditional DTF measurements apply to ODTF-1 meaning
highly accurate measurements can be made with event
resolution as good as 10 cm. The same trade-offs carry over as
well so better event resolution translates to shorter maximum
distance, and vice-versa. Max distance is specified at 1020
meters (3345 ft).
The battery life of the ODTF-1 module matches the battery life
of the VNA Master. It can be charged with the same 40-168-R
Using a VNA Master equipped with Option 0002 or 0501, this ODTF-1 optical module

Waveguide Calibration Components and
WG/Coaxial Adapters
Recommended waveguide calibration procedure requires two
offset shorts and a precise load. The waveguide/coax adapter,
shown attached to test port #2, adapts the VNA Master test
ports to the waveguide under test.
