NIST Multiline TRL calibration.
Multiline TRL can use multiple lines to extend bandwidth and accuracy of the calibration. Different line measurements are combined in a way that minimizes the error in calibration.
Calibration reference plane is at the edges of the lines.
At every frequency point there should be at least one line pair that has phase difference that is not 0 degrees or a multiple of 180 degrees otherwise calibration equations are singular and accuracy is very poor.
By default the reference impedance of the calibration is the characteristic impedance of the transmission lines. If the characteristic impedance is known reference impedance can be renormalized by giving z0_ref and z0_line. Alternatively if capacitance/length of the transmission line is given with c0 argument, characteristic impedance can be solved assuming that conductance/length is zero.
Algorithm is the one published in [0], but implementation is based on [1].
