This paper describes the scattering parameters magnitude\ud measurement and uncertainty comparison using different\ud vector network analyzer (VNA) calibration algorithms at millimeter frequencies with WR10 (75 to 110 GHz) waveguides. The state of the art two port calibration algorithms Thru-Reflect-\ud Line (TRL) and Quick Short-Open-Load-Thru (QSOLT) are\ud considered in this comparison. The dimensional measurements for Shim WR10 are also carried out

Calibration of leaky multiport vector network analyzers can be a long and time consuming procedure, unless calibration model and number of standard connections are somehow optimized. In this paper we present an optimized solution €or a practical set of multiport problems, where calibration model can be divided in two separate teaky halves, neglecting leakage between them. This problem is typical for multiport onwafer measurements, where mdti-signal probes (e.g. GSGSG) are implied, We will show that with a proper choice of calibration standards, the optimized calbration procedure takes the same time of a classical two port LRM or TRL.Index Tem-Multiport VNA, multiport S-parameters, multiport calibration, leaky calibration, multiport error model, leaky error model, on-wafer calibration.
