Abstract :
A new algorithm for network analyzer calibration is presented. The error model includes leakage effects and can be applied to a general n-port NWA. The 2-port 16-term model becomes a special case of this new technique which is also hopefully suitable for the calibration problems of multiport on-wafer probing systems. Experimental results testify the effectiveness of the new approach
