Abstract
A compact multiport reflectometer using a new subtractive mixing scheme for the determination of reflection coefficients in the frequency range of 1-10 GHz is proposed. Compared with classical multiport reflectometers, the architecture proposed reduces the design complexity. Comparison between experimental results obtained from the proposed reflectometer and those given by a conventional network analyzer is given.
