Hello im mesuring a filter from 8-11Ghz and (with 100mhz step) and im plotting the result on a normalized smith chart how can i calculate phase on degrees (-180 +180) ?
I try to arctan(im/real) and then convert rad to degrees but the result are not normal

If you are able to get the real and imaginary values of your smith chart points then you can utilize complex math functions within LabVIEW. Specifically, Re/Im to Polar function which takes the real and imaginary components and has the magnitude and phase as outputs. Mathematics->numeric->compex->Re/Im to Polar
