1. A cavity wavemeter is connected parallel to a waveguide transmission line which terminates in a resistive load. The microwave power reaching the load-end is monitored by a power meter. As the cavity wavemeter is tuned to the resonant frequency of the input signal through the waveguide assembly, the power indicated by the power meter will show ?

a steady level

rapid fluctuations

a sudden dip

a sudden rise

Answer: a sudden rise

Explanation:


2. On a slotted line terminated in a load, the minima of the standing wave pattern measured by a square-law device, are located at (on a cm scale) 9.5, 11.0, 12.5 and 14.0. At 10.95 and 11.05 the detected level being twice the minimum level. The VSWR on the line is ?
