我想为家用E8358A创建一个SMA校准套件，最高可达9 GHz。
我有一个漂亮的3.5mm SOLT和TRL套件在工作，因此我可以用3.5mm参考平面直接测量SMA标准，然后拟合系数。
然而，由于参考平面不连续，这是徒劳的吗？
没有商业SMA偏移打开和短路，并且由于额外的不连续性而采用插孔保护器来实现偏移似乎是不明智的。
由于3.5mm是为实验室级SMA测量而创建的，因此直接测量可能不会那么糟糕。
SMA-SMA接口实际上可能比3.5mm-SMA接口差。
是否可以使用未经校正的VNA测量“自举”套件？
有一段时间我通过将汞注入连接器（是的，听起来很疯狂）来创建零偏移短路，以获得相位参考，然后计划连接SMA短路以测量延迟。
然而，当我发现水银确实紧贴黄金时，这真是一团糟，所以我停了下来。
我意识到SMA套件是不受欢迎的，但惠普实际上曾经制造过它们，因为我有一个节拍（我从垃圾箱中救出）来证明这一点。
我应该提到我在eBay上找到了一个Maury女性SMA滑动负载。
我从来不知道他们做了这样的事情，但那应该照顾> 2GHz终止。
也许这将更多地是关于如何创建一个校准套件的练习。
我有几个3.5毫米的航空公司进行验证。

I'd like to create an SMA cal kit for my home E8358A for use up to 9 GHz. I have a nice 3.5mm SOLT and TRL kit at work, thus I could directly measure the SMA standards with 3.5mm reference planes, then fit the coefficients. However is this fu
tile due to the reference plane discontinuity? There are no commercial SMA offset opens and shorts, and taking on jack savers to achieved the offset seems unwise due to additional discontinuities. Since 3.5mm was created for laboratory grade SMA measurements, maybe a direct measurement won't be so bad. SMA-SMA interface may actually be worse than 3.5mm-SMA interface.
Would "bootstrapping" a kit using an un-corrected VNA measurement be possible? At one time I created zero offset shorts by pouring mercury into connectors (yes, sounds crazy), to get a phase reference, then planned on connecting the SMA short to measure the delay. However it was a real mess as I found out mercury really clings to gold, so I stopped.
I realize SMA kits are frowned upon, however at one time HP actually made them as I have a beat up one (I rescued from the trash) to prove it.
I should mention I have a Maury female SMA sliding load I found on eBay. I never knew they made such a thing, but that should take care of the > 2GHz termination.
Maybe this will be more of an exercise on how good of a cal kit can be created. I have several 3.5mm airlines for verification.
