Calibration performed by the Organisations at the locations specified overleaf

The Calibration and Measurement Capabilities (CMCs) presented in this Schedule represent the smallest uncertainties for which the laboratory is accredited and are obtained at the Winnersh facility. Measurement systems are also available at the locations listed overleaf and include some or all of the quantities included in this Schedule. Customers’ equipment will be calibrated at a location with a capability appropriate for that particular type of equipment. The assigned uncertainties will be such as to properly demonstrate the performance of the equipment and may be greater than the CMCs stated in this Schedule. Where more than one location is able to calibrate a specific item of equipment, the quoted uncertainties will normally be identical. Fort further information regarding Calibration and Measurement Capabilities, see the last page of this Schedule. Coverage factor The coverage factor k stated herein is the number by which the combined standard uncertainty u(y) is multiplied to obtain the expanded uncertainty U for a coverage probability of 95 %. The coverage factor is provided so that the user can determine u(y) for use in subsequent uncertainty budgets. For certain calibrations, Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) is used for uncertainty evaluation, based on the processes described in JCGM 101:2008, Evaluation of measurement data - Supplement 1 to the “Guide to the expression of uncertainty in measurement” - Propagation of distributions using a Monte Carlo method. If an MCS evaluation reveals that an asymmetric probability density function is associated with the estimate y of the output quantity Y, the value of k may not be relevant or available. In such cases, the stated CMCs represent the endpoints of the 95 % coverage interval and the following information will be provided in calibration certificates:

• The combined standard uncertainty u(y). This may be used directly in subsequent uncertainty budgets without the need for a divisor or, where one is required, with a divisor of 1.

• The endpoints of the 95 % coverage interval. This information may be used, for example, to assist in evaluating compliance with specification limits or to otherwise assess fitness for purpose.

CALIBRATION FACTOR

RF Power Sensors

The table overleaf shows the Calibration and Measurement Capability in % calibration factor for the various RF power sensors listed below. These are examples and are not intended to be restrictive; other sensors of similar frequency range, power range etc. may also be calibrated.

The uncertainties are for devices with values of voltage reflection coefficient (VRC) that typically do not exceed 0.01. The uncertainties will be increased for devices with significantly greater VRC.

The uncertainties apply to a measurement procedure that includes an evaluation of the connector repeatability of the device being calibrated. An alternative measurement procedure is available based on a single measurement of the device and generic data for the connector repeatability. This alternative procedure will normally be used, unless requested otherwise by the customer, and the reported uncertainty will be larger.

VECTOR NETWORK ANALYSIS

This section of the Schedule presents the CMCs for a range of vector network analysis systems. Unless otherwise indicated, each system provides measurements of reflection magnitude, reflection phase, transmission magnitude and transmission phase. The transmission magnitude capabilities are expressed in dB as this aspect of the capability will normally be used for the calibration of attenuators. Reflection magnitude is expressed in terms of voltage reflection coefficient (VRC) however this may be reported in terms of voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) or return loss (dB). Measurements are made in a 50 Ω coaxial system, with the exception of the 8753ES Opt 075 system, which uses a 75 Ω coaxial system.

Industry Primary Impedance Measurement System (iPIMMS)

iPIMMS is a measurement tool supplied and maintained by the UK’s National Physical Laboratory. Measurements are performed using a Microwave Network Analyser with enhancements and corrections being applied via NPL software. NOTES For the linear voltage reflection and transmission coefficient measurands (i.e. complex-valued S-parameters) described in this section of the schedule, the Calibration and Measurement Capability is shown as an interval of values, where a selected value within the interval represents an expanded uncertainty at a level of confidence of approximately 95%. Furthermore, a selected value within the interval will represent the uncertainty applied equally and simultaneously to both the Real and Imaginary parts of the S-parameter. The uncertainty value therefore defines a circular region of uncertainty, in the appropriate Sparameter plane, centred on the measured, quoted, mean value with a radius equal to the stated expanded uncertainty. For Voltage Reflection Coefficients (VRCs), the stated uncertainty is assumed here to be independent of the nominal |VRC|, so a single interval is presented applicable for all |VRC| in the range 0 ≤ |VRC| ≤ 1. For Voltage Transmission Coefficients (VTCs), the stated uncertainty is dependent on the nominal |VTC|, so uncertainty intervals are presented for selected, representative, values of |VTC| in the range 0 ≤ |VTC| ≤ 1. The measured values and uncertainties may also be reported as dB, VSWR, or VRC, with the angle reported in degrees or radians. Typical examples are presented in this schedule for clarification purposes.

Appendix - Calibration and Measurement Capabilities Introduction The definitive statement of the accreditation status of a calibration laboratory is the Accreditation Certificate and the associated Schedule of Accreditation. This Schedule of Accreditation is a critical document, as it defines the measurement capabilities, ranges and boundaries of the calibration activities for which the organisation holds accreditation. Calibration and Measurement Capabilities (CMCs) The capabilities provided by accredited calibration laboratories are described by the Calibration and Measurement Capability (CMC), which expresses the lowest uncertainty of measurement that can be achieved during a calibration. If a particular device under calibration itself contributes significantly to the uncertainty (for example, if it has limited resolution or exhibits significant non-repeatability) then the uncertainty quoted on a calibration certificate will be increased to account for such factors. The CIPM-ILAC definition of the CMC is as follows: A CMC is a calibration and measurement capability available to customers under normal conditions: (a) as published in the BIPM key comparison database (KCDB) of the CIPM MRA; or (b) as described in the laboratory’s scope of accreditation granted by a signatory to the ILAC Arrangement. The CMC is normally used to describe the uncertainty that appears in an accredited calibration laboratory's schedule of accreditation and is the uncertainty for which the laboratory has been accredited using the procedure that was the subject of assessment. The CMC is calculated according to the procedures given in M3003 and is normally stated as an expanded uncertainty at a coverage probability of 95 %, which

usually requires the use of a coverage factor of k = 2. An accredited laboratory is not permitted to quote an uncertainty that is smaller than the

published CMC in certificates issued under its accreditation. The CMC may be described using various methods in the Schedule of Accreditation: As a single value that is valid throughout the range. As an explicit function of the measurand or of a parameter (see below). As a range of values. The range is stated such that the customer can make a reasonable estimate of the likely uncertainty at any point within the range. As a matrix or table where the CMCs depend on the values of the measurand and a further quantity. In graphical form, providing there is sufficient resolution on each axis to obtain at least two significant figures for the CMC. Expression of CMCs - symbols and units In general, only units of the SI and those units recognised for use with the SI are used to express the values of quantities and of the associated CMCs. Nevertheless, other commonly used units may be used where considered appropriate for the intended audience. For example, the term “ppm” (part per million) is frequently used by manufacturers of test and measurement equipment to specify the performance of their products. Terms like this may be used in Schedules of Accreditation where they are in common use and understood by the users of such equipment, providing their use does not introduce any ambiguity in the capability that is being described. When the CMC is expressed as an explicit function of the measurand or of a parameter, this often comprises a relative term (e.g., percentage) and an absolute term, i.e. one expressed in the same units as those of the measurand. This form of expression is used to describe the capability that can be achieved over a range of values. Some examples, and an indication of how they are to be interpreted, are shown below. DC voltage, 100 mV to 1 V: 0.0025 % + 5.0 μV: Over the range 100 mV to 1 V, the CMC is 0.0025 %∙V + 5.0 μV, where V is the measured voltage. Hydraulic pressure, 0.5 MPa to 140 MPa: 0.0036 % + 0.12 ppm/MPa + 4.0 Pa Over the range 0.5 MPa to 140 MPa, the CMC is 0.0036 %∙p + (0.12∙10-6∙p∙10-6) + 4.0 Pa, where p is the measured pressure in Pa. It should be noted that the percentage symbol (%) simply represents the number 0.01. In cases where the CMC is stated only as a percentage, this is to be interpreted as meaning percentage of the measured value or indication.

Thus, for example, a CMC of 1.5 % means 1.5 ∙ 0.01 ∙ i, where i is the instrument indication.
