Abstract :
Several methods to determine error-corrected scattering parameters are presented. These methods are applicable to double reflectometer test sets with four measurement channels. One of these methods of calculation is particularly fast and robust. Furthermore, a new method for the calculation of the error-corrected scattering parameters without using error correction coefficients is presented
