Abstract

The invention discloses a two-port vector network analyzer calibration method based on weighted correction. The influence of random errors introduced by connection repeatability is reduced. The method comprises the steps of constructing an error network mapping model; constructing an error network T matrix model of the two ports, and defining the ratio of to-be-measured wave parameters during the calibration of the two ports as a calibration coefficient; measuring wave parameters of a plurality of single-port calibration parts, concluding a linear overdetermined equation set, and solving a common least square solution of a calibration coefficient; introducing a connection repeatability error of single-port calibration, and establishing a calibration coefficient correction value linear regression equation; performing weighted correction, and determining an error network T matrix of the vector network analyzer; and solving an estimated value of the scattering matrix of the to-be-measured piece. Connection repeatability errors are introduced, and an error network mapping model is reconstructed. The method can be used to effectively reduce the influence of random errors caused by the connection repeatability of the vector network analyzer, is high in calibration precision and flexible in calibration mode, and is used for calibration of the vector network analyzer.

Description
