Anritsu Report Tool Help : User Interface : Measurement Type
 
Measurement Type
A signal can be converted to a different measurement type and analyzed. For example, Distance to Fault (DTF) converts a previously saved Cable Loss plot, Return Loss (frequency domain) plot, or a VSWR (frequency domain) plot into a Distance to Fault plot. The trace data file types are recognized by the Anritsu Report Tool when downloaded from the measuring instrument. Use the Measurement menu shown in Figure: Measurement Type to convert a trace data file measurement method. The measurement types imported depend on the measurement method used in the instrument and/or options included in the instrument.
Measurement Type
Return Loss
Shows the data file as a Return Loss display. The Return Loss display can then be analyzed using the available parameters of the Anritsu Report Tool program.
VSWR
Shows the data file as a VSWR display. The VSWR display can then be analyzed using the available parameters of the Anritsu Report Tool program.
Cable Loss
Shows the data file as a cable loss display. The cable loss display can then be analyzed using the available parameters of the Anritsu Report Tool program.
DTF Return Loss
Shows the data file as a Distance to Fault (DTF) display. The DTF display can then be analyzed using the available parameters of the Anritsu Report Tool program.
DTF VSWR
Shows the data file as a Distance to Fault (DTF) Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) display. The DTF VSWR display can then be analyzed using the available parameters of the Anritsu Report Tool program.
TDR Ohm
Shows the data file as a Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) Ohm display. The TDR Ohm display can then be analyzed using the available parameters of the Anritsu Report Tool program.
TDR Linear
Shows the data file as a Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) Linear display. The TDR Linear display can then be analyzed using the available parameters of the Anritsu Report Tool program.
Transmission (USB Sensor)
Shows the data file as a Transmission USB Sensor display. The Transmission USB Sensor display can then be analyzed using the available parameters of the Anritsu Report Tool program.
Transmission (Port 2)
Shows the data file as a Transmission (Port 2) display. The Transmission (Port 2) display can then be analyzed using the available parameters of the Anritsu Report Tool program.
1-Port Phase
Shows the data file as a 1-Port Phase display. The 1-Port Phase display can then be analyzed using the available parameters of the Anritsu Report Tool program.
Smith Chart
Shows the data file as a Smith Chart display. The Smith Chart display can then be analyzed using the available parameters of the Anritsu Report Tool program.
