Abstract :
A novel method for calibrating six-port based wave-correlators is reported in this paper. The calibration procedure uses only one phase shifter and offers simple formulas for determining the calibration parameters. Some experiments using a new six-port junction for the wave-correlator at X-band frequency was carried out and the results confirmed the validity and accuracy of the proposed method.
