TITLE: 110 GHz Vector Network Analyzer

Requesting Laboratory / Division / Group:

Communications Technology Laboratory Radio Frequency Technology Division Radio Frequency Electronics Group 672.01

General Statement of Need:

NIST is developing a millimeter-wave standard reference material. To deliver this new standard, NIST must measure the scattering (S-) parameters of cavity resonators from 1 GHz up to 110 GHz. NIST must measure 4 different types of resonators: split post dielectric resonators, split cylinder resonators, Fabry Perot open resonators, and balanced circular disk resonators. The split cylinder resonators, Fabry Perot open resonators, and balanced circular disk resonators require proprietary software by Keysight.
