Abstract The conventional calibration method for high frequency on-wafer scattering parameters comprises 16-term error model and two-tier crosstalk correction method based on Multiline TRL, both of which did well at charactering the leakage in measurement system. A novel method is proposed here, taking the leakage in measurement system as a parallel two-port network with the device under test (DUT). The method is divided into two parts. Firstly apply the SOLR calibration method to obtain the eight-term basic error box, then measure a crosstalk standard (could be an open standard in SOLR) to deduce the crosstalk error box. Simulation and measurement results show that, the accuracy of the novel method is comparative to the 16-term method with four less calibration kits, and has a positive response at the crosstalk, and also the novel method improved test efficiency.
