  • Abstract
    Calibrated noise figure measurements performed in a vector network analyser are reported. To obtain these measurements, a receiver noise calibration procedure based on analytical calculation is proposed. The procedure is highly compatible with standard SOLT scattering parameter calibration and is especially adapted for simultaneous S-parameter and noise figure measurements. Measurement results on an experimental setup from 1 to 2 GHz are given.
