FOREWORD
1) The formal decisions or agreements of the I E C on technical matters, prepared by Technical Committees on which all the
National Committees having a special interest therein are represented, express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the subjects dealt with.
They have the form of recommendations for international use and they are accepted by the National Committees in that

sense.
In order to promote international unification, the IEC expresses the wish that all National Committees should adopt the

text of the 1 E C recommendation for their national rules in so far as national conditions will permit. Any divergence
between the IEC recommendation and the corresponding national rules should, as far as possible, be clearly indicated in
the latter.

TERMINOLOGY FOR MICROWAVE APPARATUS
1. General
1.1 Scope
This standard applies to microwave measuring apparatus and microwave measuring
techniques.
Note. —
The term microwaves is used to signify radio waves in the frequency range from about 1 GHz upwards.
(The low-frequency boundary of the microwave range is usually considered to be where lower-frequency
techniques and lumped circuit elements cannot generally be used efficiently. It is then necessary to apply
distributed line techniques and transmission line theory.)
1.2
Object
To establish the essential definitions related to microwave measuring techniques and
apparatus.
2. General terms
2.1 Anechoic chamber
A space bounded by absorbing wall coating, such that the walls can be considered as being
non-reflective for electromagnetic waves in a stated frequency range.
2.2 Cavity resonator
A space bounded by conductive coating to obtain resonance of a specific mode at a stated
frequency.
2.2.1
Echo box
A tunable cavity resonator used for the purpose of supplying a signal at a particular
frequency to adjust a radar receiver. This signal is available during the "ringing" time of the
resonator, after the transmitter pulse is turned off.
2.3 Circulator
A multiport device in which power to any port is transmitted to the next port according to
a given order of sequence.
Note. —
By reversing the biasing field the order of sequence is reversed. This property may be used to switch
electromagnetic energy.
2.4 Isolator
A passive two-port device having much greater attenuation in one direction of propagation
than in the other.
Note. —
The ratio (usually expressed in decibels) of the power entering the output port and the power delivered to
the input port is called isolation.

2.5
Corner reflector
A reflecting object consisting of two or three mutually intersecting flat conducting surfaces
and functioning by multiple reflection.
Note. Corner reflectors may be dihedral or trihedral. A 90° trihedral reflector may be used as a radar target, since
regardless of exact orientation the incident wave retraces its path.
2.6 Cut-off frequency of a waveguide mode
That frequency below which the propagation constant of a waveguide becomes real for a
specific mode, so that no significant propagation in that mode is possible.
2.7 Cut-off frequency of a waveguide
That frequency below which a travelling wave in the dominant mode cannot be
satisfactorily propagated.
2.8 Electrical length (in units of angle)
(in degrees) is defined as:
For an arbitrary device, the electrical length 1
l âfx(df)ix360
where:
dBr
df = rate of change of the phase difference (with frequency) between input and output of the device
dû0
d f = rate of change of the phase difference (with frequency) between two points in free space separated by one
wavelength
Note. — For devices having an electrical length less than 90°, a simpler definition may be used: the phase difference
(in degrees) between input and output signal of a two-port device at a specific frequency.
2.9 Guided wave
An electromagnetic wave which propagates along or between physical boundaries or
structures.
2.10 Group-delay
The slope of the phase/angular frequency transmission characteristic of a microwave device.
2.11
Gyrator
Non-reciprocal phase-shifter having a differential phase shift of it radians.
Note. — The use of the word gyrator to denote gyromagnetic devices in general is deprecated.
2.12 Waveguide transmission modes
2.12.1 Dominant mode
The mode with the lowest cut-off frequency.

2.15
Propagation constant
In a rectilinear uniform transmission line, at any given frequency, the propagation constant
of a unidirectional transmission mode of an electromagnetic field, which is a sinusoidal
function of time at that given frequency, is the logarithmic rate of change with respect to
distance of the complex amplitude of any arbitrary field component at any arbitrary point of
any arbitrary section of the line. The propagation constant is a complex quantity.

The wavelength of a propagation mode of a waveguide is the distance between two

therefore to the ratio between the phase velocity and the frequency.
For a waveguide filled with uniform dielectric, the waveguide wavelength is given by the
formula:

4.1 Immittance charts
4.1.1
Smith chart
A coordinate system consisting of two families of orthogonal intersecting circles bounded

normalized real and imaginary components of a passive immittance encountered along any
mismatched (electrically) uniform transmission line or waveguide under steady-state
conditions:
jX)/Z„
(R + or
(G + jB),'Yo
where:
Z0
= characteristic impedance
Y0 = characteristic admittance

The coordinates are arranged so that normalized immittances are graphically related to the
7C radians
phase displacement along the transmission line or waveguide. Angular rotation of 2
(360°) is linearly related to the travel of )L/2 along a transmission line or waveguide.
The radial scale gives reflection coefficient magnitude increasing linearly from zero at the
centre of the chart to unity at the rim.
In this definition only passive immitances are taken into account. It can, however, be extended for the
Note.
representation of immittances having a real part of a restricted negative value. In that case, the outer circle
gives a reflection-coefficient magnitude higher than unity.

power available at another.
In devices where the input power is very unequally divided between two other ports, the coupling factor is

4.3 Immittance concepts
4.3.1
Characteristic impedance (of a lossless transmission line for a given mode)
A quantity obtained by multiplying the guide characteristic wave impedance by a suitable
factor. This factor may be chosen in one of three ways by analogy with the transmission line
equations :
Z = P/h
Z = Uz/P and
Z = U/I
where :
Z = characteristic impedance
P =
power carried by a travelling wave
U = voltage
I = current
Note. — For a transmission line operating in the T. E. M. mode, the voltage and current can be uniquely defined, and
the three equations are consistent. For a waveguide, special definitions for voltage and current must be
conventionally adopted, and it is then found that the three equations lead to three different values of
characteristic impedance.
4.3.2 Characteristic wave impedance
For a travelling electromagnetic wave of a given frequency, the ratio at a point of the
complex magnitude of the transverse electric vector to that of the transverse magnetic vector,
with the sign chosen so that the real part is positive.
It is a function of the waveguide mode concerned, for example:
Notes I.
for T. E. M. mode, Z =
for T. E. mode, Z = •
and for T. M. mode, Z =
