Abstract :
This paper presents new developments made at NPL towards improving traceability for reflection coefficient at RF in 7 mm coaxial line. The developments involve the introduction of a new calculable standard which interfaces with a GPC-7 precision coaxial connector. Results are given illustrating the performance of the new capability.<>
