Hello!

I am looking for a solution to get impedance matrix ( Z ) from measurment on NVA that gives me only scattering parameters. Is there a simple way to recalcuate those parameters?

Thanks!

Yeah that's doable. Just note that your characteristic impedance is almost always 50 Ohms on a VNA.

Just google conversion matrix between s-parameters and z-parameters and you'll find that info readily
