A new design for high-power six-port reflectometers using hybrid stripline/waveguide technology

A novel family of six-port reflectometers designed in hybrid stripline-waveguide technology is proposed for high-power applications. Two prototypes were designed, manufactured, and calibrated using waveguide standards at 50 W power level around 2.45 GHz. The experimental results prove the feasibility of the approach for designing high-power microwave reflectometers.<
