Abstract
A broadband power meter calibration system based on a newly constructed coaxial calorimeter has been developed in the frequency region 10 MHz-40 GHz. The RF power is measured as the difference of DC power supplied to the calorimeter built-in heater in the RF load, when RF is turned off and on, holding an isothermal control between the RF load and a temperature reference. To minimize the error due to the adiabatic coaxial waveguide, we devised a new method utilizing its output port as a test port. The evaluations showed a calibration uncertainty of (0.28-2.2)% expressed by one standard deviation at the 1 mW level in the full band.
