Adjusting for Mismatch RippleDon’t adjust formismatchAdjust for mismatchNo port extensionappliedAdjusting for mismatchkeeps reflection below 0 dBNote: adjusting the loss term to account for mismatch ripple is notthe same as removing the mismatch with vector-error correctionAdvanced VNA Calibration© Agilent Technologies, Inc. 2006 Page M6- 58
Summary of Automatic Port Extensions• Especially useful for in-fixture applications wherecomplete calibration standards are not available• Eliminates the need to design and build difficult load standards• Applicable to a wide range of fixture designs• Works with probes too• Easy to use and provides quick results with medium accuracy1 stAdvanced VNA Calibration© Agilent Technologies, Inc. 2006 Page M6- 59
