Abstract :
A single six-port reflectometer configuration is here proposed to measure the four scattering parameters of two-port microwave devices. In order to determine the transmission coefficients, only one calibration standard and three measurements are required to complete calibration procedure. Furthermore, S12 and S21 can be measured without reversing the device under test.
