VNA Tools for reliable RF and Microwave measurements
Hundreds of engineers and scientists trust in VNA Tools
The knowledge of Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) measurement uncertainties is crucial to make statements about the conformity of devices and components. VNAs cover an increasing range of measurement applications in the high-frequency range. VNA Tools, as a leading metrology software, keeps up with this development – since over ten years.

VNA Tools calculates and visualizes VNA measurement uncertainties
VNA Tools is a reliable software with proper evaluation of measurement uncertainty in accordance with the guidance provided by the GUM documents and the EURAMET VNA calibration guide. It is ideally suited to support requirements posed by the normative standard ISO 17025
Key features:
- Visualization of S-parameter data with uncertainties.
- Comprehensive definition and characterization of all influences that affect VNA measurements.
- Measurement models for N-port Vector Network Analyzers.
- Use of efficient linear uncertainty propagation module of METAS UncLib to propagate all uncertainties through the VNA measurement model
- Supported calibration types: One Port, SOLT, GSOLT, QSOLT, Unknown Thru, TRL, LRRM, Juroshek, Reflection Normalization, Transmission Normalization, One Path Two Ports, LHKM, LHKM_TRL_LRL, LHKM_TRM_LRM and Optimization.

Uncertainty Library (UncLib)
VNA Tools is built on METAS UncLib. UncLib is a free measurement uncertainty calculator for the propagation of measurement uncertainties. It can be used in wide range of metrological fields and is not limited to S-parameter measurements.
Simplify integration with the Real Time Interface (RTI)
In addition to the free software VNA Tools, METAS has recently extended the software with a new licensable tool: The Real Time Interface (RTI). It simplifies the implementation of VNA Tools into an existing software environment. Commercial solutions using VNA Tools RTI have become available. Further information can be obtained from hf@metas.ch.
