Abstract :
We develop a procedure and metrics for comparing large-signal-network-analyzer calibrations. The metrics we develop provide a bound on differences between measurements obtained from large-signal-network-analyzer calibrations, as well as specific information on how the power, phase, and scattering-parameter portions of the calibrations differ.
