Abstract :
The WR15 thermal noise standard that is used as the national reference standard of noise power in the frequency range from 56 to 64 GHz is described in this short paper. The source forms a basis for both the noise-power comparison service and noise-figure service offered by the National Bureau of Standards in this frequency range.
