Abstract :
This paper deals with two basic problems in the measurement of the Q factor of low-loss transmission lines: 1) long lines and 2) short lines with appreciable direct coupling between the driving and pickup probes. The results are given as relative ordinates on the (distorted) resonance curve which correspond to the correct values of ±½δι or ±½δ∮ defined by Q =∮ / δ∮=ι/δι.
