General S-Parameter Conversion

This section describes the most common method of transformation of the S-parameters to Z, Y, T, H, ABCD - parameters. The method is valid for complex and unique values of the port impedances. Z, Y, H, ABCD - parameters can be presented both in volume and in normalized form. The method is described in: Dean A. Frickey’s "Conversions Between S, Z, Y, h, ABCD, and T Parameters which are Valid for Complex Source and Load Impedances".

The function is applied to the channel as a whole. Before using this function, select the active channel.

		To enable/disable the general conversion, use the following softkeys:
		To enable/disable the normalization of Z, Y, H, ABCD - parameters, use the following softkeys:
		Set the real and imaginary parts of complex port impedances using the following softkeys:
		To select the conversion type, use the following softkeys:
Note		Conv is indicated in the trace status field, when general conversion is enabled.
