Abstract :
A more efficient implementation of an earlier four-standard calibration procedure for six-port reflectometers (utilizing simple iteration computations instead of other more cumbersome optimization techniques) is presented. Test results show that the calibration software that has been developed is capable of yielding reasonably good accuracies even in the presence of measurement noise
