Superconducting travelling wave parametric amplifiers (TWPAs) are broadband near-quantum limited microwave amplifiers commonly used for qubit readout and a wide range of other applications in quantum technologies. The performance of these amplifiers depends on achieving impedance matching to minimise reflected signals. Here we apply a microwave calibration technique to extract the S-parameters of a Josephson junction based TWPA in-operando. This enables reflections occurring at the TWPA and its extended network of components to be quantified, and we find that the in-operation performance can be well described by the off-state measured S-parameters.
