Usual Avionics Calibration Parameters

Dynamic Range: The span between the lowest and highest output power levels.
Accuracy: The deviation from the specified output power.
Resolution: The smallest change in output power that can be set.
Switching Speed: How quickly the signal generator can change its output amplitude.
Phase Noise: A measure of unwanted phase fluctuations around the carrier frequency.
Harmonics: Unwanted frequency components at integer multiples of the fundamental frequency.
Spurious Signals: Undesired signals generated at non-harmonic frequencies.
Non-Harmonic Distortion: Distortion introduced by imperfections in the signal generator’s output.
