Abstract

In this paper, frequency modulated(FM) reflectometry is proposed to measure group velocity of microwave transmission line Various microwave transmission lines such as periodically loaded conducting posts in a waveguide and nonradiative dielectric(NRD) guide are adopted to measure their group velocity The result compared with that from network analyzer shows good agreement, indicating the validity of our measurement method.
