Re: nanoVNA Partner #nanovna_partner

 

Hi Maurizio,

Yes, what is displayed is the value of X when Y is at maximum and it is the total delay
and needs to be divided by 2. With regards to segmented sweep to increase the
number of points, I will try to implement that in the software.

Kind regards,

neb


Re: Calibration Algorithm #calibration

 

Hi Daniel;

See Post #8459 - #88 : the G formula - our research work has been completed.

I think you will find the formula given there both relevant and efficient. It yields the corrected reflection coefficient result in one pass by embedding the calibration and measurement data into a single formula.

Your application will also serve as an excellent beta test for the authors GIN&PEZ@arg who I am certain would very much welcome your comments.

This was posted today, so I have not yet personally evaluated the algorithm in this final form. I have independently verified a previous version, and find the integrity of their work to be sound and thorough. I¡¯m confident that I will find the same to be true here also.

They also provided the ¡°proof¡± for this in an earlier post #8013.

Hi neb , many thanks for the nanoVNA Partner program , very nice.
Why not implement the multiple scan ( segmented sweep) , to increase number of points ?
One little mistake or undestand : measuring a cable RG58 C/U VF 0.66
on chart forma TDR , a cable length is ok ( 2.07 m ) , but the delay indicated I suppose need to be divided bye 2.
Best Regards

<Related to the first comment. Google Play will not display apps that have a higher android version requirement than the target device.

Hi Mike,

Norton is agressive, Eset NOD32 is work well but not v¨ªruses.
This program work well, without problem.
Thank You neb!

Works great, I like your approach to user interface very much
Thank you for the new version

Re: errors of "error" models

 

#88 : the G formula - our research work has been completed

Hello,

Allow us, please, to present the complete G formula - in our sow and
facupov, of course - at:



in terms of its measurement g, as well as of S, L, O loads given
by their honest manufacturers as (Nominal Value, Uncertainty)
couples, and their measurements s, l, o respectively - all complex.

By the way, also allow us, please, to announce -with much pleasure,
indeed- that our related research work in this very subject
-
that is on the assumption that the VNA measurement g caused by a
connected to VNA load G can be considered as obeying the equations
of an irreversible, non-reciprocal, two-port - a virtual-real one consisting
of a virtual measurement port and a real load port - along of course with
their errors caused by the inaccuracies of these measurements and the
uncertainties of these loads
-
has been substantially completed, since in our Small Objective World
sow we can not see anymore any further existing omissions in this picture
facupov From A Common User's Point Of View.

Sincerely,

Re: Thermal effect?

 

Yeah, the original Nano (and mini/pocket VNA, plus most old HP gear) are like that. It's possible to remove the drift (and I mean not having to re-calibrate after warmup) with an internal correction switch (basically a switch that shorts port 1 to ground) which I've added in my design; hopefully others will follow.


Re: Thermal effect?

 

The difference is, that after warmup one gets repeatable results. When I calibrated the cold VNA and started to measure, maybe the very first results showed true numbers, but very soon results drifted (see the figure to my initial posting). I feel much better when repeated measurement show the same number. Otherwise there is always a bad taste...

Re: Calibration Algorithm #calibration

 

Look in the source code of nanoVNA-saver on github

Or if you only require perfect calibration standards use this:


plusJ=complex(0,1);
minJ=complex(0,-1);
one=complex(1,0);
two=complex(2,0);


gm1 = S; #Measured Short
gm2 = O; #Measured Open
gm3 = L; #Measured Load
s21m = T; #Measured Through


g1=complex(-1,0)

g2=complex(1,0);

g3=complex(0,0);

denominator = g1.*(g2 .- g3).*gm1;
denominator = denominator .+ g2.*g3.*gm2 .- g2.*g3.*gm3 .- (g2.*gm2 .- g3.*gm3).*g1;
e00 = - ((g2.*gm3 .- g3.*gm3).*g1.*gm2 .- (g2.*g3.*gm2 .- g2.*g3.*gm3 .- (g3.*gm2 .- g2.*gm3).*g1).*gm1) ./ denominator;
e11 = ((g2.-g3).*gm1.-g1.*(gm2.-gm3).+g3.*gm2.-g2.*gm3) ./ denominator;
deltaE = - ((g1.*(gm2.-gm3).-g2.*gm2.+g3.*gm3).*gm1.+(g2.*gm3.-g3.*gm3).*gm2) ./ denominator;

e10e32 = s21m .* (one - (e11.*e11));

ed = e00;
es = e11;
et = deltaE;

th = e10e32;
