  • Abstract
    This paper derives numerical procedures for comparing different theoretical designs of six-port junctions for measuring the voltage reflection coefficient Gamma of passive loads (|Gamma| <= 1). It shows that the maximum uncertainty of measuring any |Gamma| <= 1 can be minimised, by a suitable choice of components, for each of three published designs.
