Should the bridge chance to be at balance, the signal may be difficult to detect, and it is advisable to move the PHASE and MAGNITUDE controls slightly to obtain a loud working signal. When the bridge is opera
26、ting correctly the signal at un- balance will be approximately 40 db below the level of the signal at the bridge input. When the working signal has been obtained the PHASE and MAGNITUDE controls are adjusted until a sharp null is obtained. When the knobs have been adjusted for an absolute null, the
27、impedance magnitude and phase angle may be read directly from the dials on the VHF Bridge. The nulls obtained by the bridge under the proper conditions of receiver sensitivity and signal level are extremely sharpat high frequencies and shallow at low frequencies and may be difficult to locate under
28、certain conditions. When the approximate value of the impedance is known, however, the null is detectable without difficulty. When the approximate value of the impedance under test is not known, the following procedure should be used. 1) Reduce either the signal level from the generator or reduce th
29、e sensitivity of the receiver until the signal is barely audible. When the Model 417A VHF Detector is employed, use the QUENCH control rather than the VOLUME control for this operation. 2) Adjust the PHASE and MAGNITUDE controls for a reduction in the signal level. The sequence of this adiustment is

The upper dial indicates impedance directly in ohms inde- pendent of frequency. The lower dial indicates phase angle at 100 MC. The positive phase angle calibra

33、quipment 3) When the null region has been established, in- crease the signal level or sensitivity of the re- ceiver and adjust the controls for further local- ization of the null. As the null is localized, continue to increase the signal level until the final null is obtained. 2-4 PHASE ANGLE AT FRE
34、QUENCIES #100MC The nature of the bridge permits the PHASE control to be calibrated at any single frequency. The im- pedance phase angle of any other frequency is de- fined by the ratio of the actual frequency to the calibrated frequency. To facilitate calculation, the PHASE dial on the Model 803A i
35、s calibrated for a frequency of 100 MC. The actual phase angle is determined by the expression: x (Dial reading e) signal frequency 100 MC e= 2-5 MULTIPLE NULLS At high frequencies it is possible to obtain several nulls on the phase dial. The significant null is the one which is closest to the zeroo
36、nthe PHASE dial. This condition exists because most impedance phase angles will fall between -90 and + 90 and as the frequency is increased, the corresponding dial range is decreased. For example, at 300 MC, a phase angle range from -90 to + 90 represents a dial range from -30 to +30. (See para. 2-4
37、.) 2-6 OPERATION WITH RADIATING LOADS In many cases measurement will be conducted for antenna impedance or other load impedances under conditions where appreciable radiated energy is present around the bridge and the detector. The Model 803A has been carefully checked for leakage, and the Model 417A
38、 VHF Detector has been designed with shielding for such applications. However, a very small amount of leakage into the detector will cause erroneous results. When a radiating load is located close to the bridge, a well-shielded cable must be used connecting the bridge to the detector. Ordinary RF do
39、uble braid shielded cable is in- adequate in some cases, and copper-clad cable should be used with both ends of the cable carefully grounded to the connectors. This precaution is normally adequate for satisfactory results with radiating loads. When the shielding is adequate, bridge balances will be
40、sharp and unaffected by touching or grounding various parts of the bridge circuit or cables. Inadequate shielding will reveal itself as inconsist- ent repeat results, and as a shifting null when the receiver or bridge is touched or grounded.

Although this length has been made as short as possible circumstances arise in which the actual imp
42、edance is transformed by this length of line, and the 803A will not give the desired impedance directly. At high frequencies this condition may become quite pronounced even with the load con- nected directly across the bridge terminal. This length of line is equivalent to a series in- ductance of 0.

When this is done the load impedance is transformed by whatever line lengt
45、h is used and a correction must be applied to the reading of the bridge to give the actual impedance. The correction to be applied is found by the use of a Z-Theta chart described in paragraphs 3-3, through 3-8. 3-3 Z-THETA CHARTS, GENERAL Two transparent films of the Z-e chart will be found in the
