Abstract
Modern swept-frequency network analysers readily display complex reflection and transmission coefficients as functions of frequency. Methods, applicable to both 1- and 2-port cavities, are presented for the convenient extraction of cavity Q-factor information from the frequency variation of reflection coefficient amplitude and/or phase. The methods are extended to cases where the coupling circuit is lossy.
