Abstract

This paper presents a method using a two-tier calibration with `Thru-Line' for evaluating the S-parameters of adapters based on three-adapter technique. It uses a one-port VNA (Vector Network Analyzer) to avoid cable movements with `OSL' (Open-Short-Load) calibration standards, which are widely used for one-port measurements, being used at the first and second calibrations. Formulas are also derived for estimating the uncertainties of the S-parameters of adaptors using the proposed method.
