Abstract :
Initiated by a request of the joint communications board of the United States Joint Chiefs of Staff, the development of a microwave frequency standard was completed in June 1945 by the National Bureau of Standards with the assistance of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology radiation laboratory. Frequency measurements and calibrations of frequency meters or voltage sources in the microwave range now are possible as a regular calibration service.
