    Abstract: A power detection system implemented using a pair of directional couplers and a transmission line (or equivalent) disposed between the directional couplers, wherein the transmission line (or equivalent) provides a 90° phase shift between the directional couplers. Accurate power detection is provided by combining the powers detected at each of the directional couplers, whereby the combined power is independent of load phase. The total power in the forward case is given by Pc1=2*Pf*C, where Pf is the forward power and C is the coupling coefficient the directional couplers. The total power in the reflected case is given by Pc1=2*Pf*C*(ρ2+D2), where Pf is the forward power, C is the coupling coefficient of said directional couplers, ρ is the reflection coefficient, and D is the directivity of the directional couplers.

    Abstract: In apparatus for measuring the output power an RF transmitter stage (34) connected to an antenna (44) via a quarter wavelength stripline (38), a manual probe (20) is applied connect the output of the transmitter stage to a power meter (24) and connect the output end of the stripline (38) to ground. Thus, RF signals which were passed to the antenna (44) are switched to the power meter (24). All the circuitry including the antenna (44) is mounted on a printed circuit board (60) disposed within a housing (14) which has an aperture (18) to enable the probe (20) to be inserted. By providing a suitable meter, parameters other than RF power can be measured.

    Abstract: A highly sensitive method and system for making absolute measurements of er at all radio frequencies is described. This method surmounts the primary shortcoming of the other existing methods in that it permits absolute measurement of power at all radio frequencies, whereas all other methods except one, viz, the so-called incremental method, (described in our co-pending application), are inherently frequency limited, with the current upper limit being about 75 GHz. This major advantage stems from the fact that this method utilizes a direct comparison of the unknown rf power with a primary standard, whereas the other methods (with the exception of the incremental method) require a conversion of the power to heat before making the comparison. The main advantage of this method over the incremental method is that it has much higher sensitivity, permitting absolute measurement of rf power to be made down to about -100 dBm, as compared with only about -10 dBm for the incremental method. An additional advantage of this method is that it permits the measurement of noise as well as coherent rf power, whereas the incremental method is valid only for the case of coherent rf.

    Abstract: A signal strength meter indicates signal level directly in dBmV. The signal under test is attenuated to a level which centers a meter indicator, and the attenuator movement is translated into numerical direct reading information of signal level. Push button switches select a channel for testing, and each switch incorporates gain compensation for the frequency of the signal to be tested. Within each channel the operator can select between audio and video carrier frequency.

    Abstract: An apparatus and method thereof are described to measure alternating current (AC) power, including: an AC voltage measurement circuit, an in-phase/quadrature (I/Q) direct down converter, an analog/digital converter, and an AC power calculator. The AC voltage measurement circuit is configured to measure first and second AC positive voltages and first and second AC negative voltages from an AC voltage source. The I/Q direct down converter is configured to directly convert each of the first and second AC positive voltages and the first and second AC negative voltages into an I-signal and a Q-signal orthogonal to each other using down conversion. The analog/digital converter is configured to convert the I-signal and the Q-signal into I-data and Q-data, respectively. The AC power calculator is configured to calculate the AC power using the I-data and the Q-data.
