  • Abstract
    A method to calibrate a coaxial RF power meter by comparison with a standard power meter is described, where the ratio of the mismatch factors is determined using two calculable coaxial air-line impedance standards. First experimental results of measurements performed in the coaxial 7 mm/N technique at frequencies from 2 GHz to 18 GHz are presented.
