Abstract

The invention provides a simplified calibration method for a multiport vector network analyzer. The method comprises steps that: step One, an error model between any two ports is set, any one of the ports is selected to be a first port, directivity, source coupling and a reflective tracking error of the first port are acquired; step Two, a straight member or an adapter is utilized to connect with the first port and a second port of the vector network analyzer for straight measurement to acquire positive / reverse load coupling and positive / reverse transmission tracking errors correlated with the port and the first port; and step Three, through two times of measurement, directivity, source coupling and a reflective tracking error of the second port are acquired. Through the method, reflective connection can be reduced by 50% through double-port calibration, reflective connection can be reduced by 75% through four-port calibration, and reflective connection can be reduced by 93.75% through sixteen-port calibration, and thereby introduction of technology into multiport calibration can realize more obvious effects and stronger simplification effect in real application.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of calibration of vector network analyzers, and in particular relates to a simplified calibration method for multi-port vector network analyzers. Background technique [0002] In recent years, in order to improve the performance index of equipment, various multi-port and multi-functional components and modules have appeared one after another, such as power combining network, T / R unit integrated with multiple T / R components, various feeder networks, etc., and have system The significant feature of large demand for integration, from microwave components, components, complete equipment to weapon system development, production, installation and commissioning, maintenance and repair, requires accurate and rapid testing and analysis of multi-port network S parameters . Therefore, the vector network analyzer is required to have the measurement function of multi-port devices. Before using the vector network analyz...
