The article presents the technique of the VNA verification with arbitrary number of measuring channels for the purpose of determination the main metrological characteristics: errors of measurements of complex transmission ratios and reflection. Also the design of the parametric model of the multi-channel VNA on the basis of the general 12-parametric model is executed. Results of using the approach in the case of the automation of carry out testing of the experimental samples of the band passing filters for radar systems are provided.
