A Calibrating Six-Port Compact Circuit using a New Technique Program

Abstract

In this paper, a calibration of six-port reflectometer using a new technique program is presented. It has been shown that a calibration procedure is based on explicit method, the method that capturing the output wave forms of six-port junction and determines the complex relationship between the two waves present at the input from the value of four outputs. The number of calibrating standards and the computation effort required are the most important parameters in selecting a calibration technique. Comparison between the results obtained from the new calibration method program with measurement results show the validity of the method proposed. This calibration technique can be used in general six-port direct digital receiver.
