Promising Research Results and Development in the Field of Microwave Technology

Abstract

A new method for analyzing the high-frequency path of measuring and radio engineering systems based on matrix analysis is proposed. The replacement of the error scattering matrix with a transmission matrix in the form of cellular matrices is proposed and justified, the equations of calibration and restoration of the actual (corrected) values of the measured parameters are obtained in matrix form, and the ways of solving these equations are given in general form. The main parasitic parameters of the useful signal transmission path associated with inhomogeneities, leaks and insufficiency of interchanges are determined. The use of the developed methods made it possible to optimize the structures of devices, calibration and measurement algorithms. A large range of general and special purpose devices has been created in the decimeter, centimeter and millimeter wavelength ranges.
