Abstract :
In this paper, a new method is developed for measuring reflectance of metal meshes on mm-waves. It is based on a reflectance reconstruction from the measured resonance curve of a quasi-optical resonator. The reconstructing algorithm is suggested and applied to the metal mesh having overall small dimensions which are not enough for employing standard free space techniques. Example of power reflectance measurement in W-band is reported.
