Beadless coaxial air dielectric transmission lines can be used as fundamental reference devices for S-parameter measurements at RF and microwave frequencies. However, for these lines to be used for such applications, they must first be characterised accurately in terms of their impedance and propagation characteristics. This includes assessment of the small amount of loss in the line and the associated...
