Calibration Types
The Calibration Type list box provides the complete selection of available calibration types.
The following list describes each calibration type:
• Full 2-Port (S
11
, S
21
, S
12
, S
22
) calibrates both ports for measurements in both
directions, and provides the most accuracy for two-port devices. It requires three
calibration components and a through-line.
• Full S
11
(Port 1) calibrates Port 1 for reflection measurements only. It requires three
calibration components.
• Full S
22
(Port 2) calibrates Port 2 for reflection measurements only. It requires three
calibration components.
• Full S
11
and S
22
(both Ports) calibrates both ports for reflection measurements only. It
requires six calibration components, three calibration components for each port.
• Response S
21
(Transmission Response Forward Path) performs simple normalization
for S
21
measurements. It requires a through-line.
• Response S
12
(Transmission Response Reverse Path) performs simple normalization for
S
12
measurements. It requires a through-line.
• Response S
21
and S
12
(Transmission Response Both Paths) performs simple
normalization for both S
21
and S
12
measurements. It requires a through-line.
• Response S
11
(Reflection Response, Port 1) performs simple normalization for Port 1
reflection measurements only. It requires one short or open.
• Response S
22
(Reflection Response, Port 2) performs simple normalization for Port 2
reflection measurements only. It requires one short or open.
• Response S
11
and S
22
(Reflection Response, Both Ports) performs simple normalization
for both ports for reflection measurements only. It requires two components: one short
or open for each port.
• 1P2P S
11
, S
21
(1 Path, 2 Port Forward Path) calibrates Port 1 for reflection
measurements and S
21
measurements only. It requires three calibration components
and a through-line.
• 1P2P S
22
, S
12
(1 Path, 2 Port Reverse Path) calibrates Port 2 for reflection
measurements and S
12
measurements only. It requires three calibration components
and a through-line.
Note
The MS20xxB compact VNA Master and the S412E LMR Master models are
two-port, 1-path vector network analyzers that allow S
11
and S
21
measurements
with a single connection. Not all calibration types in the following list apply to the
MS20xxB VNA Master and the S412E LMR Master.
The MS20xxC VNA Master models are full-reversing, two-port vector network
analyzers that allow reflection measurements from both ports and allow
transmission measurements in both directions (S
11
, S
21
, S
22
, and S
12
measurements) with a single connection.
