Development of a Basic Reference Standard of the Power of Electromagnetic Oscillations in Coaxial Transmission Lines

  • RADIO MEASUREMENTS

Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

A version of the basic reference standard of the power of electromagnetic oscillations in coaxial transmission lines in the frequency range 30 MHz–67 GHz is presented. It is shown that through the use of coaxial reference feedthrough wattmeters it is possible to reproduce and disseminate the unit of power of electromagnetic oscillations with the degree of precision necessary for testing the most precise wattmeters.
