摘要：
An original multimode thru-reflection line (TRL) algorithm is used to derive the generalized scattering parameters of multimode two-port networks. Theoretical developments are detailed for calibration procedures based on two ports as well as multiple-port vector network analyzer (VNA) measurements. First-run experimental results demonstrate the validity of this technique, This method allows the experimental characterization of multiconductor transmission-line devices. It could also be used to characterize power coupling to undesired modes in monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) structures using conductor-backed coplanar waveguides.
