Insertion Gain (Amplifier) Measurement
The following frequency domain measurement is an example of a Insertion Gain (Ampli
-
fier) measurement over a selectable frequency range. Insertion loss measurements, such as
antenna-to-antenna isolation and filter rejection (isolation), follow the same procedures as
below except in Insertion Loss (+6 dBm) measurement mode.
