Abstract

The invention discloses a method for determining the uncertainty of the S parameter measurement conducted through a vector network analyzer, and relates to the technical field of calibration methods for the vector network analyzer. The method is achieved through MCM simulation, and therefore the problem that the relevance between S parameters needs to be considered when the uncertainty is evaluated through a GUM method and the problem that the uncertainty obtained through an experience algorithm is incomplete are solved. The method starts from the definition of a calibration piece, self-calibration is conducted on the vector network analyzer based on an SOLT calibration method, the uncertainty introduced through the calibration piece is transmitted to a measured piece through the vector network analyzer, and finally the measurement uncertainty of the S parameters of the measured piece measured by the vector network analyzer and the relevance between the S parameters are obtained through the MCM simulation method so that it can be ensured that performance of obtaining the accurate S parameters of the measured piece can be achieved for the vector network analyzer and measurement accuracy can be improved.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of a calibration method of a vector network analyzer. Background technique [0002] Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) is the most widely used measuring instrument in the field of microwave measurement. In order to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the S-parameter measurement of the vector network analyzer, high-precision calibration parts have been developed for the self-calibration of the vector network analyzer. The two-port vector network analyzer calibration technology is widely used in commercial instruments , The most important of which is the SOLT calibration technology based on a 12-term error model. [0003] Calibration technology generally includes three important parts: Error Model, Calibration Procedure, and Error Correction. First, determine the source of the system error according to the hardware structure of the vector network analyzer, and then use the error model to visually express the relation...
