Abstract :
A novel six-port reflectometer designed in hybrid stripline/waveguide technology is proposed for high power applications. This reflectometer was calibrated using waveguide standards at 50 watts power level around 2.5 GHz. The primary experimental results prove the feasibility of the approach to design high power microwave reflectometers. The results of measurements are relatively in good agreement with theory at 1 watt and 50 watts from 2.44 to 2.48 GHz
