Query Syntax

:SPRocess{1:16}CONVolve:PEXTract?

Description

Specifies extracting 2-port information from a 4-port S-parameter file for an Apply s2p operator. The following table shows the relationship between the three commands used to define and extract the 2-port data from the S-parameter file.

DIFFerential

Extracts s2p data from an s4p file with differential mode data.

CMODe

Extracts s2p data from an s4p file with common mode data.

TPORt1

Extracts s2p data from an s4p file selecting ports 1 and 2 or ports 1 and 3, depending on the state of :CONVolve:PORDer as shown in the following table.

TPORt2

Extracts s2p data from an s4p file selecting ports 1 and 3 or ports 2 and 4, depending on the state of :CONVolve:PORDer as shown in the following table.
