Abstract

A method of determining the complex reflection and transmission coefficients is considered, based on measurements of the resonance characteristics of a short-circuited waveguide, excited through an inductive iris. The parameters of the coupler in the R2-54/3 type panoramic VSWR measuring instrument are measured.
