Abstract :
In the frequency range of W-band and D-band, we report, in this paper, technique of evaluating typical errors which are essential factors for confidence of VNA measurements. They were estimated using the S-parameter standard developed at NMIJ. This process ensures the SI traceability in VNA measurements.
