Abstract
A determination method according to the present application includes: (A) a step for measuring, at a plurality of frequencies, an S-parameter at the current probe location or in the current coaxial connector or waveguide connection state; (B) a step for calculating a coefficient matrix for fitting a prescribed function matrix to the measured S-parameter frequency properties; (C) a step for calculating a first local outlier factor on the basis of the calculated coefficient matrix; and (D) a determination step for determining, on the basis of the relationship between a threshold and the calculated first local outlier factor, whether a first state in which the probe is contacting the prescribed target, or a second state in which there is a connection failure between the coaxial connector or the waveguide and the prescribed target exists.
