De-Embedding and Unterminating

De-embedding is the process of deducing the impedance of a device under test from measurernents made at a distance, when the electrical properties of the intervening structure are known. Unterminating is the process of deducing the electrical properties of the intervening structure from a series of measurements with known embedded devices. The mathematical steps necessary for de-embedding and unterminating with theoretically redundant measurements in order to minimize the effect of experimental errors.
