Abstract
A description is given of methods utilizing microwaves for the purpose of measuring the free-space vacuum velocity of electromagnetic waves. The cavity resonator and the microwave interferometer methods are discussed in detail; brief mention is made of the molecular band spectrum method. The values obtained from these methods are compared with optical values.
