For those of you who are new to us, we are an informal discussion group devoted to sharing information and issues related to the measurements and instrumentation in the vector large-signal network analysis (NVNA/LSNA) of nonlinear microwave circuits and systems. The Forum is also a discussion venue for calibration issues, data representation methods (and models), and other techniques related to these nonlinear measurements.
We are always welcoming topics of discussions and research updates. If you are interested to preset your research work at NVNA User's Forum, contact Patrick Roblin.

For those of you who are new to us, we are an informal discussion group devoted to sharing information and issues related to the on-wafer measurement and calibration practices. The Forum is also a platform to define workgroups and gather experts in the field to progress the field of on-wafer measurements and calibrations.
Forum principles:
• Facilitate discussion with like-minded engineers
• Open exchange of experience, ideas, discussion of problems
• Informal atmosphere
If you want to suggest a topic or present a research update at an upcoming forum, contact any of the On-Wafer Users' Forum organizer: Andrej Ruminatsev
