Abstract :
This paper describes a calibration technique for the dual six-port automatic network analyzer which has different sexed connectors on the test ports. It is based on the thru-reflect-line (TRL) technique, and can give some redundancies in calibration procedure and calibration constants for any combination of the test ports.
