Requirements / Specification Document TITLE: Microwave Signal Generator

Requesting Laboratory / Division / Group:

Communications Technology Laboratory Radio Frequency Technology Division Guided wave electromagnetics Mail Stop 672.01

General Statement of Need:

The Communications Technology Laboratory (CTL) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) enables science and industry by providing essential measurement methods, instrumentation, and standards to support all phases of communications technology development, from fundamental characterization and discovery to production.

The Radio Frequency Technology Division (RFTD) within CTL requires a microwave signal generator to perform research on power measurements and to perform calibrations of power sensors as a calibration service. The signal generator needs to generate a variety of power levels and offer low spurious harmonic content, among other requirements (see specifications).
