Abstract :
Accurately rating the power handling capacity of a microwave component is a frequent and difficult task. In a study of this problem for the Bureau of Ships, a simple waveguide spark gap has been found to be a valuable tool and its adoption by microwave engineers as a universal standard is recommended.
