Abstract

See full text

A fast calibration method for slide-screw impedance tuners employs a reduced calibration algorithm, which creates appropriately distributed calibration points over the Smith chart compatible with already existing interpolation and tuning algorithms for high accuracy and high-speed impedance tuning. The method uses one vertical scaling of the tuning probe followed by a limited number of vertical positioning operations at pre-set horizontal intervals and applies this data to generate accurate interpolated high-density tuner calibration data points at a fraction of previously required calibration times.
