If your VNA only provides TDR length measurements, you can easily convert cable delta measurements into time as long as you know the coax cable velocity factor. The formula is as follows, where c is the speed of light at 299792458, and vf is the cable velocity factor.
-time_delta_x = ( cable_length_delta / (c * vf) ) * 10^9
+`time_delta_x = ( cable_length_delta / (c * vf) ) * 10^9`
In the example below we have three cables with vf=0.66 with slightly different lengths that we'd like to compensate for. The time_delta in nanoseconds is given by:
+```
Cable 0: 2.00130m
Cable 1: 1.99933m
Cable 2: 1.99910m
+```
+```
cable_length_delta_1 = 2.00130m - 1.99933m = 0.00197m
cable__length_delta_1 = 2.00130m - 1.99910m = 0.00220m
-
+```
+```
time_delta_1 = (0.00197m / (c * 0.66)) * 10^9 = 0.009956383ns
time_delta_2 = (0.00220m / (c * 0.66)) * 10^9 = 0.011118803ns
