Objective
The objective of the project is to determine the
reflection coefficient of an unknown load by the
use of a six-port network analyzer integrated
with a workstation.
4
Background
The reflection coefficient can be found by
knowing a reference signal and sampling selected
power outputs in a micro-strip circuit. With
these known quantities and using a specific
algorithm, the reflection coefficient can be
calculated.
