Abstract

In this paper, we present a simple design for the Thru-Reflect-Reflect-Reflect-Reflect (T4R) calibration method, which allows us to develop a closed-form solution for this calibration problem. We compared our T4R method to Thru-Reflect-Line (TRL) calibration. This comparison showed an excellent agreement between T4R and TRL calibration methods.
