This is a nice option. Another option is the have the relay company do this
work, specifying to them the material you're going to use, and the stack-up and
let them give you the pad dimensions, and s-parameters.
You're using surface mount correct?

Hi Arpita,
You can try In-Situ De-embedding (see http://ataitec.com/si_measurement).

Hello Orin, Lyndell and Tom------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks for your response.Sorry for not giving details. I need to de-embed the
switch matrix system for my measurements at 6G and above. So trying to find a
methodology and asking experts recommendation.
Regards

Are you sure a TDR wouldn't be a better choice? And given the high isolation
between relay drive and signal paths, what "relay effect" are you referring
to?

Hi All
I need to do some VNA measurements on 6 pole relay switch. But I
think I cannot do it at power on condition, the relay effect will
overshadow the original behavior. Is there any thought how I can do it?
Thanks.
Regards
Arpita
