  • Abstract
    Different types (pyramidal, convoluted, wedge, flat) of absorber panels made by three manufacturers have been measured at 107 and 183 GHz. These measurements revealed a rapid degradation of the quality of absorbers from 107 to 183 GHz: reflectivity increased nearly 10 dB. The best absorbers have reflectivities below -40 dB at 107 GHz and about -35 dB at 183 GHz. Measurements for flat absorbers agree well with the equations for a dielectric interface.<>
