The following devices are necessary to execute this test:
- Signal generator
- Amplifier
- Coupler
- Forward power meter
- Reflected power meter (optionally)
- Current sensor
- Sensor power meter / Analyser
- 50 Ohm load
- 50 Ohm attenuator
- LISN
- Current injection device
- Current injection calibration jig (Calibration fixture)
- Cable drivers with corrections
