The series of application-focused webcasts instruct to make precise RF and microwave measurements with the new FieldFox family of microwave analyzers. Test results are comparable to that of benchtop equipment in the lab as well as field installation and maintenance environments. Topics include techniques for precise interference measurements, cable and antenna measurements, calibration and alignment measurements, time domain measurements and precise power measurements.

Agilent Technologies Inc. announced that the company has been accredited as a designated calibration agency under Japan Radio Law by the Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications. Agilent is the first non-government designated calibration agency in Japan.

Spectracom, a business of the Orolia Group, announced it has been awarded a contract to supply the U.S. Air Force Metrology Calibration Program (AFMETCAL) with precision timing and frequency test equipment over the next 5 years. Spectracom Frequency Calibrator/Analyzers will be used across several AFMETCAL projects to test and calibrate any device or system that relies on a precisely timed signal.

Jon Martens of Anritsu and Al Neves of Wild River Technology used DesignCon 2012 to discuss high-confidence S-parameter measurement methodologies for 15 - 28 Gbpsec.

Individuals who view calibration as a necessary evil are not taking into account the bigger picture. Calibration is essential to improving a company's bottom line, by minimizing risk to product defects and recalls, and enhancing a reputation for consistent quality.
