5D. Assume you perform a proper calibration with precision 3.5 mm calibration kit and measure an SMA open circuit to be used by WAMI Students.  The following simple model as shown below can be used for the SMA open  standard, measured reflection coefficint determined at 6 GHz shown below for this standard, determine value of capacitance required to provide a good initial model based on the given data.  (Note:  in the typical model used for open standards C= Co + C1*f+C2*f^2+C3*f^3, we will only use Co here, and also no offset is needed in this particular case).    SMA Open   S11 meas @ 3 GHz  0.99 < -10 deg
