Re: S11 and S22 comparisons on 8753
A well calibrated VNA is the best way of measuring S11/ S22.
A broadband cal kit load is as close to 50Ohm as HP can make it.
A slight mismatch at the end of an air line will allow you to normalise

Re: S11 and S22 comparisons on 8753
I don't claim to know much about scaler network analyzers, so what I

I don't see how you can consider a *scaler* network analyzer able to
characterise S11 and S22, since both S11

Re: S11 and S22 comparisons on 8753
Hi:
The most accurate way of characterizing S11 or S22 is to use a scalar network analyzer with a bridge and precision air line. The cal load is a precision load that's just slightly off from 50.0
