skrf.calibration.calibration.UnknownThru

class skrf.calibration.calibration.UnknownThru(measured, ideals, *args, **kwargs)

Two-Port Self-Calibration allowing the thru standard to be unknown.

This algorithm was originally developed in 1, and is based on the 8-term error model (EightTerm). It allows the thru to be unknown, other than it must be reciprocal. This is useful when when a well-known thru is not realizable.
