Plotting Normalized S11 for multiple traces

Greetings

Used to use Microwave Office extensively ten years ago, but have been in the field so my modeling skills are little rusty.

I am capturing linear S parameters from a Vector Network Analyzer which is driving a SP6T switch

As I cycle through the various switch ports, I want to display the S11 mag (dB) and Phase (DEG) of subsequent iterations.

My real goal is to use a type of Trace Math, wherein in my initial S11 data is the Golden state, and every next trace is compared to the normalized Golden Trace

I've been working with the support team, but something is getting lost in back and forth.

Any thoughts would be appreciated

ENO

    Hi ENO,

    Have you looked at the SDeltaP measurement under Linear -> Port Parameters? I believe this would accomplish what you are looking for.

    Thanks,

    David Webster

    Hi David - very interesting, I'm on the road for a couple of days, but I will explore this upon my return. Thanks, ENO
