Abstract :
A new technique (based on a extension of the six-port reflectometer procedure) is used to measure the scattering coefficients of two-port devices. Only six power sensors are required, as opposed to a total of eight for the dual-reflectometer scheme. Tests confirm that the nine-port instrument based on this technique is able to yield reasonably good measurement accuracies
