55 1-Port: Waveguide Calibration Methods Short -> Offset-Short -> Load (SOSL) Short -> Offset-Short -> Load -> Offset-load (SOSOL) 2-Port: Thru -> Reflect -> Line (TRL) Thru -> Reflect -> Match (TRM) Line -> Reflect -> Line (LRL) Easy to Implement Often Recommended Short -> Offset-short -> Load -> Thru (SOSLT) Short -> Offset-short -> Load -> Offset-load -> Thru (SOSOLT) 55
56 LRL Cal Standards Characteristics Reflect: reflection coefficient magnitude need not be known must be the same on each port reflection coefficient must be known within 1/4 wavelength LINE 1: S12 and S21 defined same as Line 2 S11 and S22 defined to be zero LINE 2: Z0 of the line establishes reference impedance, = LINE 1 insertion phase must not be equal to that of the Thru LINE Usable bandwidth for a single LINE 1/LINE 2 pair is <8:1 Bandwidth limited i.e. (stop freq)/(start freq) <8 S21 of line need not be known, BUT must have similar propagation properties as LINE 1 56
57 Assumptions The test ports have ideal aperture geometry. That they are perfectly aligned to the device-under-test (DUT). In the presence of waveguide aperture irregularities and misalignment, the validity of these assumptions breaks down as frequency increases. The source match of both lines are considered to be the same. For Calibration > 110 GHz LRL is the Calibration method is the best. 57

59 The Issue - Common Waveguide Irregulaties Oversized apertures (typ μm) Rounded corners & sidewalls Flange poor edge & surface finish Burrs 59
60 LRL Cal Standards Characteristics Reflect: reflection coefficient magnitude need not be known must be the same on each port reflection coefficient must be known within 1/4 wavelength LINE 1: S12 and S21 defined same as Line 2 S11 and S22 defined to be zero LINE 2: Z0 of the line establishes reference impedance, = LINE 1 insertion phase must not be equal to that of the Thru LINE Usable bandwidth for a single LINE 1/LINE 2 pair is <8:1 Bandwidth limited i.e. (stop freq)/(start freq) <8 S21 of line need not be known, BUT must have similar propagation properties as LINE 1 60
