Standing-Wave Measuring Equipment for Microwaves

Abstract

Standing-wave methods of making impedance measurements in the microwave region have been investigated to find means of increasing operating convenience and to reduce the time required in taking readings. Improvements can be made in manually operated instruments by the use of a broad-band transition between the pickup probe and a bolometer detector and by a direct reading phase scale, calibrated as a function of frequency.
