Abstract

Traditional vector network analyzers, measuring magnitude and phase of network characteristics as a function of frequency, have proven invaluable in design, testing, and metrology applications. The ability to now evaluate network responses as a function of time following application of a step or impulse stimulus provides substantial important data for network analysis. This paper describes time-domain testing fundamentals and then presents numerous practical examples of the value of both time-domain measurements and simultaneous time- and frequency-domain testing.
