Re: nanovna-saver crashes with H4
I forgot to mention that the nano 2.8 hardware is on some old software. My H4 software is also old 1.0.64. It was installed May 31 2021 Fred

Re: nanovna-saver crashes with H4
I am confused. A friend of mine and I are trying to figure out why *my nano H4 and his very early nano vna with the 2.8" screen will both run on his nano saver 0.3.7.* His 2.8 nano runs on my computer

Re: S11 ? if Zc complexe
Indeed.. For instance if Z1 = 2 - 1000j and Z2 is 50 + 100j, then gamma = (Z1-Z2)/(Z1+Z2) gamma = 1.215 - 0.124j |gamma| > 1 (and it's not some sort of numerical precision th

can you send as attachment your .s2p file I wrote a little software to smooth out the errors. I would see what happens. -- F1AMM Fran?ois De la part de astech119 Envoy¨¦ : lundi 26 juin 2023 18:32

Re: S11 ? if Zc complexe
We have a little trouble understanding each other. It is not a question of measurement but of calculation. I have an adapter which for a given input impedance returns the impedance Zout =

Outliers in group delay measurement
I'm measuring the group delay of some 60in cables with a NanoVNAH4 and I am getting outliers in the data. I am using nano-vna saver and I have tried both with on board calibration disabled and

Re: Inductor model
Calibrating with the crocodile clips will not give you a good reference plane. The reason I say this is if you keep them the same distance apart when you cal with an open, short and load you will have

Re: S11 ? if Zc complexe
It's possible, that with some active systems, you could get a reflection that is bigger than the incident wave (i.e. if the Zload were negative). But I think that for an entirely passive load, the

Re: S11 ? if Zc complexe

Re: S11 ? if Zc complexe
I knew about the phone lines. My problem is that if we calculate the S11 with complex values, it leads, for example, to a ROS which can be negative. S11 is no longer in a circle of radius 1. Is this

Re: S11 ? if Zc complexe
Sure it is: S11 is just a representation of the reflection coefficient on port 1 of the UUT. Generally people use just the log magnitude in dB, but it has a phase, too. Nothing prevents the Z0 being

S11 ? if Zc complexe
Hello In the attached formula (ROS.png), as long as Zo is real, even if Zl is complex, everything is fine and S11 remains in a circle of radius 1. and the ROS is between 1 and infinity. If Zo is

Re: Inductor model
Roger, the method I suggested requires inductance calculated this way. It yields an accurate coil model over a narrow frequency range. To my surprise, it seemed good enough over the whole 3.5-4 MHz
