An Improved Circuit for Implementing the Six-Port Technique of Microwave Measurements

Abstract

In a companion paper, circuit design criteria were developed which lead to optimal performance in applying the six-port technique to the measurement of microwave parameters. A circuit which approximately satisfies these new design goals is described. Together with its several variants, it promises to become, in many applications, the "preferred" six-port circuit.
