4 ¸ZVL Vector Network Analyzer
The ¸ZVL is a compact, powerful, and future-proof network
analyzer, and is therefore ideal for use in devel-opment,
production, and service.
It is the only instrument to combine the functions of a network
analyzer, spectrum analyzer, and power meter in a single box, and
will thus tremen-dously increase your work effi ciency.
The ¸ZVL is ideal for lab applications where the measurement
tasks vary frequently; it can be used to measure S-parameters as
well as the output spectrum, ACP, and TOI without having to
reconnect the device under test (DUT). With the ¸ZVL, production
lines can now be run even more flexibly, as the switchover from
network analyzer to spectrum analyzer can easily be effected via
remote control. Moreover, an ¸NRP-Z power sensor, which can be
directly connected to the ¸ZVL, ensures precise power
measurements.
Favorable price and high performance reduce costsThe ¸ZVL
combines a wide dynamic range and excellent measurement speed with
versatile functionality. The seg-mented sweep, the multitrace
display, and the powerful marker and trace eval-uation are only
some examples of the functions that speed up measurement sequences
and reduce tuning and mea-surement times. The price/performance
ratio of the ¸ZVL makes the instru-ment unique among the compact
net-work analyzers in its class.
Compact dimensions and low weight save space and facilitate
mobile operationWeighing less than 7 kg and featuring an instrument
depth of only 37 cm, the ¸ZVL is by far the most compact instrument
in its class. It is easy to carry and does not require much space
on your workbench. And as the ¸ZVL can be battery-operated, it is
ideal for mobile applications.
Upgradeability and compatibility within the instrument family
protect your investmentNo matter what the challenge, the ¸ZVL
quickly takes it on and thus grows with the demands. You can
install hardware options as needed on-site in line with the plug
& play concept. You can easily replace a damaged connec-tor of
the ¸ZVL3-75 (75 W version of the ¸ZVL3) on-site without down-time
and need for recalibration. The user interface and the
remote-control com-mand set of the ¸ZVL are similar to those of the
¸ZVB and ¸ZVA. Thus, these network analyzers are inter-changeable
in development and produc-tion – eliminating the need to
familiarize yourself with a completely new instru-ment or to invest
in new remote-control programs.
TV and CATV applicationsThe ¸ZVL3-75, the 75 W version of the
¸ZVL3, is the ideal tool for TV and CATV measurement applications.
It has 75 W connectors with exchangeable inner conductor.

Multitrace display
Dynamic range at 10 Hz IF bandwidth
6 ¸ZVL Vector Network Analyzer
Dynamic range and speed for complex DUTs Large measurement
bandwidths up to 500 kHz and fast synthesizers make for short
measurement times and thus high throughput in manual tuning and
automated production sequences. Due to the analyzer's wide dynamic
range at large measurement bandwidths, this advantage in speed does
not affect mea-surement accuracy. The ¸ZVL is thus the ideal tool
for measuring and tuning selective DUTs such as duplex filters for
base stations.
Sweep modes adapted to the task reduce measurement timeUsing
different sweep modes, the ¸ZVL achieves optimal measure-ment times
for a wide range of DUTs:
For narrowband DUTs such as ◆bandpass filters, the linear sweep
with equidistant measurement points is the most suitable solution.
Depending on the DUT, the number of measurement points can be
selected between 2 and 4001The ¸ZVL measures broadband ◆DUTs such
as cables or lowpass filters within a minimum of time by using the
logarithmic sweep. In this case, the step size is proportional to
the current measurement frequencyThe segmented sweep is ideal for
◆filter tuning. It allows the test point spacing, measurement
bandwidth, and source power to be specifically set for different
frequency segments. By selecting the appropriate setting in the
passband and the stopband, minimum sweep times, and maximum dynamic
range and accuracy can be achieved
Multitrace display for faster DUT characterizationSeveral traces
can be combined in diagrams as required and assigned to different
measurement channels1). Thus, the ¸ZVL characterizes DUTs using
a
1) A measurement channel refers to an independent set of test
parameters including, for example, sweep mode, test point spacing,
power, measurement bandwidth, and calibration.
variety of stimulus conditions, and simul-taneously displays all
relevant param-eters on the screen. The names of the traces and
channels can be edited and replaced by user- specific names to make
them easy to identify. The number of traces is limited only by the
instrument's RAM capacity; more than 100 traces are available for
remote-control applications, for example.
High throughput in production

the tuning of complex DUTs, such as duplex filters for base
stations.

Easy export and import of measure-ment results for quick
documentation or comparison with a golden deviceTo make
documentation easy, the ¸ZVL provides different graphical and data
formats for exporting measure-ment results. Moreover, data compiled
with external tools can be loaded. For this purpose, the ¸ZVL
provides different formats and interfaces:
Storage of measurement results in- ◆ternally to the hard disk or
externally to a USB memory stickExport of hard copies in *.BMP,
◆*.WMF, or *.EMF formatExport of memory and measurement ◆traces,
e.g. as Touchstone or ASCII files for further processing in
spread-sheet analysis programs, MATLAB®, or simulation

Rohde & Schwarz R&S®ZVL Vector Network Analyzer 3
Definitions General
Product data applies under the following conditions:
Three hours storage at ambient temperature followed by 30
minutes warm-up operation
Specified environmental conditions met
Recommended calibration interval adhered to
All internal automatic adjustments performed, if applicable
Specifications with limits
Represent warranted product performance by means of a range of
values for the specified parameter. These specifications are
marked with limiting symbols such as , ≥, ±, or descriptions
such as maximum, limit of, minimum. Compliance is ensured by
testing or is derived from the design. Test limits are narrowed
by guard bands to take into account measurement uncertainties,
drift
and aging, if applicable.
Specifications without limits
Represent warranted product performance for the specified
parameter. These specifications are not specially marked and
represent
values with no or negligible deviations from the given value
(e.g. dimensions or resolution of a setting parameter). Compliance
is
ensured by design.
Typical data (typ.)
Characterizes product performance by means of representative
information for the given parameter. When marked with or as a
range, it represents the performance met by approximately 80 %
of the instruments at production time. Otherwise, it represents
the
mean value.
Nominal values (nom.)
Characterize product performance by means of a representative
value for the given parameter (e.g. nominal impedance). In contrast
to
typical data, a statistical evaluation does not take place and
the parameter is not tested during production.
Measured values (meas.)
Characterize expected product performance by means of
measurement results gained from individual samples.
Uncertainties
Represent limits of measurement uncertainty for a given
measurand. Uncertainty is defined with a coverage factor of 2 and
has been
calculated in line with the rules of the Guide to the Expression
of Uncertainty in Measurement (GUM), taking into account
environmental conditions, aging, wear and tear.
Device settings and GUI parameters are indicated as follows:
“parameter: value”.
Typical data as well as nominal and measured values are not
warranted by Rohde & Schwarz.

The dynamic range is measured as the difference between the –10
dBm source power and the rms value of the data trace of the
transmission magnitude. This magnitude is produced by noise and
crosstalk with the test ports short-circuited and the step
attenuators set to 0 dB. This specification applies without
system error correction and at 10 Hz measurement bandwidth (filter
type:
normal) in the temperature range from +18 °C to +28 °C. The
dynamic range is also affected by receiver inherent spurious at
particular frequencies.
