Device for Actively Improved Impedance Synthesis
First Claim
1. An impedance control device for tuning a device under test comprisinga first terminal port arranged for connecting a device under test,a second terminal port arranged for connecting a termination,a first signal path for a signal travelling between said first and said second terminal port,first coupling means arranged for picking up a part of said signal travelling in said first signal path,a second signal path arranged for receiving said part of said signal from said first coupling means, said second signal path comprising a correction circuit for adapting as a function of frequency the amplitude and phase of said received part of said signal,second coupling means arranged for coupling back into said first signal path an adapted signal outputted by said correction circuit,an attenuator and phase shifter for applying attenuation and phase shifting on said signals travelling between said first and said second terminal port.

Abstract
An impedance control device for tuning a device under test comprising: a first terminal port arranged for connecting a device under test, a second terminal port arranged for connecting a termination, a first signal path for a signal travelling between the first and the second terminal port, first coupling means arranged for picking up a part of the signal travelling in the first signal path, a second signal path arranged for receiving the part of the signal from the first coupling means, said second signal path comprising a correction circuit for adapting as a function of frequency the amplitude and phase of the received part of the signal, second coupling means arranged for coupling back into the first signal path an adapted signal outputted by the correction circuit, and an attenuator and phase shifter for applying attenuation and phase shifting on the signals travelling between the first and the second terminal port.
