Simulation of a three probe reflectometer system / Nor Wahidah Misran

The aim of this project is to do a simulation of a three probe reflectometer system. A slotted line is used to measure three standing wave voltages corresponding to three probe positions which are one-eight wavelengths apart. The output of this measurement can be used for obtaining the complex refle...
