Abstract :
A BIPM international key-comparison of power measurements at 62 GHz (GT-RF/95-1) has been carried out between four national metrology institutes. The BNM-LCIE acted as pilot laboratory. The results show very good agreement in measuring the effective efficiency and the magnitude of reflection coefficient for the unique IEC R620 waveguide thermistor mount involved in the comparison.
