Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

A method is demonstrated where by the use of the NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) reference material 8130 and NIST MultiCal® software allow the performance of modern performance network analyzers (PNA) to be evaluated and compared to a NIST benchmark TRL calibration. The analysis, presented here, is useful in the assessment of calibration repeatability. It also yields information to help improve the comparison of VNA measurement results from across various Intel laboratories.
