Advancements in Vector Network Analysis (VNA) hardware and software algorithms have enabled a new class of instrumentation; the Non-linear Vector Network Analyzer (NVNA) for analysis of active components. The NVNA is based on the Agilent PNA-X series of VNA; and consists of an integrated NVNA. A three-step calibration process using a new phase calibration standard; a vector calibration with a vector calibration kit; and amplitude calibration with power sensor; provide the ability to calibrate and measure the vector error corrected absolute amplitude and cross-frequency phase stimulus of signals. The NVNA can be used as a vector corrected time domain scope by measuring the absolute amplitude and cross-frequency phase of the signals with error correction applied. A typical VNA can measure scattering coefficients of a component often called S-parameters. It also measures the X-parameters of the component that can be displayed as well as imported into Agilent ADS as a fully operational linear and nonlinear model for optimization; simulation and design;
