Enhanced Response Calibration Error Model
Enhanced response calibration uses the same error model as the forward configuration
portion of
Figure
7-38. In the response portion, the source and load match effects are
fully-accounted for giving the same accuracy to the forward tracking term (E
) as the
TF
two-port calibration. During the measurement, the enhanced response calibration
performs a correction which is mathematically the same as setting the values of E

to zero (0) and the values of E
and E
