Abstract :
This paper presents the results of GT-RF international key comparison CCEM.RF-K5b.CL for the measurement of scattering coefficients over the range of 2-18 GHz. Nineteen National Metrology Institutes were involved in this comparison, which took place between June 2003 and November 2006. On the whole, the results show a good agreement amongst the participants.
