Multiport Millimeter-Wave Measurements Using Converters of the R&S®ZVA Family

The R&S^® ZVA-Z110 converters offered for the R&S^® ZVA family enable network analysis in the W band (75 GHz to 110 GHz). In this Application Note, measurements with three or four converters will be discussed. Test configurations for such measurements have so far been implemented only with coaxial connector systems for a frequency range up to approx. 40 GHz. The term 'multiport measurements' was created for this type of measurements.
