Multiport measurement technique, six-port reflectometer,reflection coefficient,measurement uncertainty, power meters,dynamics of power range.Abstract
In this paper a general investigation on the
uncertainty of reflection coefficient measurements with the use of six-port reflectometer is presented. A wide range of both power measurement uncertainty and limited dynamics of the power meters utilized in the six-port systems are incorporated. Based on the conducted analysis the optimum parameters of six-port reflectometer are derived, which provide the lowest
possible measurement uncertainty distribution for all
reflection coefficients of passive devices.
