The Application of LRL Technique for Calibrating the Automatic Network Analyzer

LRL technique for calibrating the automatic network analyzer is presented. LRL technique is a variation of TRL, it is especially useful for microwave, non-coaxial environments. This technique would enhance the accuracy extent of calibration. Detailed information about the choice of LRL calibration kits and LRL calibration steps are given. In addition, an measurement example using LRL calibration approves LRL technique is valid.
