Abstract :
The Power Standards in continuous frequency range from 37.5 to 178.6 GHz were entirely modernized and automated in 1992-1995. The main features, the principles of operation and metrological characteristics are given, including the power transfer, the comparisons and the long-term stability. For an independent control at the short wavelength end of the band a wide-band transducer is calibrated in microcalorimeter.
