hi all
how we can calculate the reflection coefficient with data with imaginary and real from VNA
regards kartik

 

[biff44]

you use |p| = (((real part)^2) + ((imaginary part)^2))^0.5

to get angle = arctan (imaginary part/real part)

ie rectangular to polar coordinate transformation

alternatively, push the right buttons on the ana to see it calculated for you

Real or imaginary part of what? Impedance?
