Abstract :
A new calculable standard of voltage-reflection coefficient and voltage standing-wave ratio consists of a quarter-guide-wavelength section of waveguide having cross-sectional dimensions different from those of the waveguide system into which it is inserted. Design equations are given for waveguide of rectangular and coaxial cross-sections.
