How to change 3 ports s-parameter to Reflection coefficient
I have a s-parameter of a 3-ports network ,can I know the reflection coefficient of Port11?
BR,
Thank you!
For port 1
it is S11
For port 2
it is S22
and for port 3
it is S33 !
Or did I wrongfully understand the question ?
you can do the S11 format converter using ADS easily.
Thank you ,your idea is helpful!
And if anyone have the formulations ,pls show it .thank you~

S11 is the reflection coefficient (gamma).
Reflection coeff is defined here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflection_coefficient
We know that gamma = ratio of V-/V+ (or E-/E+, if you use E for voltage/electromotive force). Sxx (like S11) is also the voltage ratio of V-/V+ for the device under test, if you understand how S-parameters are determined, and what they represent.
I think only if all ports match ,gamma=Sxx
The reflection coefficient is also a function of the loads of other ports, not only the s parameter itself. For example, just connect two ports of different value of impedance with a 50 ohm line. S11 of this line is 0, however, the gamma looking from one port is not 0 in this case.
Yes. But that's generally assumed when you are measuring return loss (standard practice).
