Selects the 2-port
parameters. The parameters describe the
admittances of a 2-port DUT, obtained in forward and reverse transmission and reflec-
tion measurements:
●
Y
11
is the input admittance at port 1 of a 2-port DUT that is terminated at port 2 with
the reference impedance Z
0
(matched-circuit admittance measured in a forward
reflection measurement).
●
Y
22
is the input admittance at port 2 of a 2-port DUT that is terminated at port 1 with
the reference impedance Z
0
(matched-circuit admittance measured in a reverse
reflection measurement).
●
Y
12
and Y
21
denote the forward and reverse converted transfer admittances,
respectively.
Use the Smith chart to obtain an alternative, graphical representation of the converted
impedances in a reflection measurement.
Tip:
Use the "Y- Z-Params" tab to measure Y-parameters including the transfer param-
eters.
Remote command:

Y-Z-Params Tab
Allows you to select Y- and Z-parameters as measured quantities. Both Y- and Z-
parameters can serve as an alternative to S-parameters for characterizing a linear n-
port network.
