CMU Output Level Test Uncertainty

This document calculates the uncertainty for a CMU output level test at -130 dBm with a 3 second measurement time. It lists various sources of uncertainty including the powermeter, noise, zero error, calibration uncertainty, temperature effects, linearity, mismatch, S21 measurement accuracy, switching reproducibility, and signal to noise ratio. The combined standard uncertainty is calculated to be 0.1321 dB and the expanded combined uncertainty at a 95% confidence level is 0.2590 dB.
