Abstract :
A method of analysis of a thermistor bolometer RF voltage standard covering the frequency range up to 1000 MHz is described. The method is based on the determination of the equivalent circuit parameters by varying responses and using a curve-fitting technique. The voltage standard is independent of any other RF quantity and meets the requirement of a primary standard
