SET2DIL: Method to Derive Differential Insertion Loss from Single-Ended TDR/TDT Measurements

摘要

This paper presents a novel method to derive Differential Insertion Loss (SDD21) using only single-ended TDR/TDT (or 2-port VNA) measurements at a single probe location. Extensive simulation and measurement data are provided to demonstrate its accuracy. The method, in conjunction with a proposed hand-held probe would, for some applications, replace current 4-port measurements of 2 probe locations which are appropriate for a laboratory environment only. The SET2DIL method would allow much easier measurement of SDD21, making it acceptable for a broader variety of users including High Volume Manufacturing (HVM).
