Abstract
Two models describing the systematic measurement error in a two port vector network analyzer are in use. Conditions relating the twelve E-term error model and physically based eight S-term error box model are derived. Three practical E- to S-term conversion algorithms are presented. An example VNA test set is analyzed as to allow for measurement interpretation. Reported results show the limitations of each algorithm.
