Abstract :
An international comparison of power standards at 94 GHz was approved at the 1983 meeting of the Radio Frequency Working Group of the Consultative Committee on Electricity, Participants in the comparison were ETL (the pilot laboratory, Japan), LCIE (France), NIST (US), and RSRE(UK). Three thermistor mounts as the transfer standards were circulated among the participants, who measured the effective efficiencies of the mounts. Relative deviations in power measurements at 94 GHz by the participants lie within a range of 1.3%
