FIELD: radio engineering, communication.
SUBSTANCE: method of calibrating the power level of an UHF or EHF generator is characterised by that calibration is carried out using two sections of a measuring channel whose length differ by λ/4·(2n+1) for n = 0, 1, 2, …, where λ/4 is the wavelength of electromagnetic oscillations in the measuring channel, which are successively connected to the output of the generator; signal power at outputs thereof is measured and the half-sum of two measurements of the power level of the output signal of the generator is calculated.
EFFECT: high accuracy of calibration in the whole microwave and millimetre wavelength range.
