Abstract :
An improved measurement method for production and laboratory reflection (SWR) measurements is presented. Two methods for improving accuracy of swept data by factors of ten times are explained and typical results presented. These methods extend the range of reflection measurements to beyond 1.006 SWR (50 dB Return Loss), up to 18 GHz.
