Abstract :
The present paper describes a technique to remove the adaptor errors in reflection-coefficient measurements of waveguide-devices. It is simple to implement and experimental trials have shown that the corrected reflection-coefficient results are much more accurate than the raw readings (before the adaptor correction)
