Hi, I want to measure the insertion loss of power divider with signal generator and signal analyzer, so why should we use 10 db attenuation at output port?
If you want to characterize accurately the insertion loss of a power divider (or a splitter), actually you have to provide AT ALL 3 PORTS a 10dB attenuator to get good resistive impedance at those ports.
