The
S-P
arameter
Menu
The
S-parameter
menu
allows
you
to
dene the
input ports
and test
set direction
for
S-parameter
measurements
.
The
analyzer
automatically
switches the
direction of
the
measurement
according
to
the
selections
you
made in
this menu.
Therefore,
the analyzer
can
measure
all
four
S-parameters
with
a
single connection.
The S-parameter
being measured
is
labeled
at
the
top
left
corner
of the
display.
The
S-parameter
menu
contains
the
following
softkeys:

Conversion
Menu
This
menu converts the measured reection or transmission data to the equivalent complex
impedance
(Z) or admittance (Y) values
. This is not the same as a two-port Y or Z parameter
conversion, as
only the measured parameter is used in the equations
. Two simple one-port
conversions are available
, depending on the measurement conguration.
An S
11
or S
22
trace measured as reection can be converted to equivalent parallel impedance or
admittance using the model and equations shown in Figure 6-9.
