Abstract

The power equation concept has been implemented into a multioctave precision bolometer unit calibration system employing automation techniques in conjunction with an automatic network analyzer system. The system was qualified as a calibration transfer system operating in the 2-12.4 GHz frequency range at 1 to 10 mW with a single measurement standard deviation of 0.2% to 1% from 2-10 GHz.
