Abstract
An improper choice of dimensions for the standards used in the microwave de-embedding procedure will cause errors in the determination of the propagation constant. This leads to unrealistic values for the attenuation constant, which in turn causes errors in the de-embedded results. Proper selection of dimensions is made to minimize such errors. Physically realistic values are obtained with this selection
