27、sion system in which it is inserted (including the load). The insertion loss is generally expressed in decibels. Note 2 to entry: In a transmission system where the load and source impedances are equal, the insertion loss can be expressed by the scattering parameter S21.: ( ) ( )IL S=2120 dBlog (2)

28、Note 3 to entry: For a cable which is matched to the transmission system in which it is inserted, the insertion loss is equivalent to the cable attenuation.

29、 method for attenuation 4.1 Method A: Balun-based test method for symmetrical cables 4.1.1 Test equipment The test equipment consists of a vector network analyser (VNA) having at least 2 ports, and the following: S-parameter set-up (shall be capable of performing S21measurements). Baluns to convert

30、the unbalanced signal of the VNA to a balanced signal. The baluns shall have an impedance on the primary (unbalanced) side equal to the nominal impedance of the measuring devices (in general 50 ) and on the secondary (balanced) side equal to the nominal impedance of the cable under test (CUT) (e.g.

31、100 ). The baluns shall fulfil the requirements of Class A baluns as described in EN 50289-1-1. Calibration artefacts to perform the required calibration of the test equipment on the secondary side of the baluns. To perform a full 2-port calibration a short circuit, an open circuit, a reference load

32、, and a short connection cable or similar, are required. The short circuit shall have negligible inductance and the open circuit shall have negligible capacitance. The load resistor shall have a value close (within 1%) to the nominal impedance of the CUT (e.g. 100 ) and with negligible inductance an

33、d capacitance. The connection cable shall be as short as possible and well matched to the nominal impedance. Resistor termination networks (RTN) for termination of inactive pairs. The resistor termination network shall provide the differential mode and the common mode reference termination impedance

34、s. It is recommended to use resistor termination networks in accordance with Annex C of EN 50289-1-11. Baluns may be used for termination of the inactive pairs if they provide the specified differential and common mode terminations. As an alternative to a network analyser, a generator and vector vol

35、tmeter may be used. Accuracy of test set-up shall be better than 1 %. 4.1.2 Test sample The CUT shall have a minimum length as specified in the relevant sectional specification. Both ends of the CUT shall be prepared, such that when connected to the terminals of the test equipment the influence to t

36、he test result is minimized. The twisting of the pairs/quads shall be maintained. 4.1.3 Calibration procedure It is not the intent of the standard to detail the algorithms applied by a VNA to correct the measured results based on a calibration procedure but to detail the calibration procedure. Furth

37、er information may be obtained in the manuals of the VNA supplier. The calibration shall be performed on the secondary side of the baluns. A full two-port calibration is recommended using open, short, and load calibration artefacts at the terminals of the balun, and a short connection cable between

38、the two baluns for the through calibration. 4.1.4 Measuring procedure The CUT shall be connected to the terminals of the test equipment as depicted in Figure , including proper termination of the active pairs, the inactive pairs, and the screen. The connection of the CUT to the test ports shall be o

39、ptimized, such that the mismatch at the connection is minimized. For the inactive pairs, it is recommended to apply resistor termination networks as referenced in 4.1.1. BS EN 50298-1-8:2017EN 50298-1-8:2017 6 Figure 1 Attenuation measurement using baluns The scattering parameter S21shall be measure

40、d over the whole specified frequency range and at the same frequency points as for the calibration procedure. All pairs/quads of the CUT shall be measured. Under matched conditions, the attenuation a of the CUT is given by: ( ) ( )( )af S=10 2120 log dB (3) 4.2 Method B: Balun-less test method for s

41、ymmetrical cables 4.2.1 Test equipment Method B is the preferred one for balanced cables for frequencies above 1 000 MHz as it avoids the use of baluns which are often limited to 1 000 MHz. With this configuration it is possible to measure both the differential mode and the common mode attenuation o

42、f the cable. Please refer to EN 50289-1-1 for a general description of the balun-less test method and nomenclature. The test equipment consists of a multiport vector network analyser VNA having at least 4 ports, and the following: S-parameter set-up. A mathematical conversion from unbalanced to bala

43、nced, i.e. the mixed mode set-up which is often referred to as an unbalanced, modal decomposition or balun-less setup. This allows measurements of balanced devices without use of an RF balun in the signal path. With such a test set-up, all balanced and unbalanced parameters can be measured over the

44、full frequency range. Coaxial interconnection cables in accordance with the relevant clause of EN 50289-1-1 to connect the VNA, switching matrix (if used), and the test fixture. The connection cables shall have characteristic impedance equal to the nominal impedance of the VNA, and a low transfer im

45、pedance. BS EN 50298-1-8:2017EN 50298-1-8:2017 7 Coaxial calibration standards for calibration at the end of the coaxial interconnection cables (if applied). To perform a calibration at the end of the coaxial interconnection cable coaxial reference standards, so called calibration standards, i.e. a

46、short circuit, an open circuit and a reference load, are required. An alternative to the before mentioned open, short and load references is the use of an electronic multiport calibration kit (E-cal module) which is supplied by the supplier of the VNA. Calibration artefacts in accordance with the re

47、levant clause of EN 50289-1-1 for calibration at the test interface (if applied). To perform a calibration at the test interface, calibration artefacts, i.e. a short circuit, an open circuit and a reference load, are required. Resistor termination networks (RTN) for termination of inactive pairs. Th

48、e resistor termination network shall provide the differential mode and the common mode reference termination impedances. It is recommended to use resistor termination networks in accordance with Annex C of EN 50289-1-11. 4.2.2 Test sample The CUT shall have a minimum length as specified in the relev

49、ant sectional specification. Both ends of the CUT shall be prepared, such that when connected to the terminals of the test equipment the influence to the test result is minimized. The twisting of the pairs/quads shall be maintained. 4.2.3 Calibration procedure It is not the intent of the standard to detail the algorithms applied by a VNA to correct the measured results based on a calibration procedure but to detail the calibration procedure.
