A Unified Approach for Reformulations of LRM/LRMM/LRRM Calibration Algorithms Based on the T-Matrix Representation
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper investigates a unified theory to derive vector network analyzer calibration algorithms based on the T-matrix representation, by which means the line-reflect-match (LRM), line-reflect-match-match (LRMM), and the line-reflect-reflect-match (LRRM) calibrations are formulated. The proposed calibration theory is more general than other versions of LRM, LRMM, and LRRM in that an arbitrary known two-port device can be used as the line standard L, rather than a perfect thru or transmission line. Experimental verifications of the proposed theory using on-wafer calibrations from 0.5 GHz to 110 GHz are given.

A Unified Approach for Design of Lp Polynomial Algorithms
By summarizing Khachiyan's algorithm and Karmarkar's algorithm forlinear program (LP) a unified methodology for the design of polynomial-time algorithms for LP is presented in this paper. A key concept is the so-called extended binary search (EBS) algorithm introduced by the author. It is used as a unified model to analyze the complexities of the existing modem LP algorithms and possibly, help ...

The parameters of a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) are transition and emission probabilities‎. ‎Both can be estimated using the Baum-Welch algorithm‎. ‎The process of discovering the sequence of hidden states‎, ‎given the sequence of observations‎, ‎is performed by the Viterbi algorithm‎. ‎In both Baum-Welch and Viterbi algorithms‎, ‎it is assumed that...
متن کاملNew theoretical analysis of the LRRM calibration technique for vector network analyzers
In this paper, a new theoretical analysis of the fourstandards line-reflect-reflect-match (LRRM) vector network-analyzer (VNA) calibration technique is presented. As a result, it is shown that the reference-impedance (to which the LRRM calibration is referred) cannot generally be defined whenever nonideal standards are used. Based on this consideration, a new algorithm to determine the on-wafer...

متن کاملImage Classification via Sparse Representation and Subspace Alignment
Image representation is a crucial problem in image processing where there exist many low-level representations of image, i.e., SIFT, HOG and so on. But there is a missing link across low-level and high-level semantic representations. In fact, traditional machine learning approaches, e.g., non-negative matrix factorization, sparse representation and principle component analysis are employed to d...
