Description
Initially this paper will outline a theoretical study, using commercially available software CST, into the use of off-the-shelf V-dot sensors made from N and SMA type adaptors and connectors. A complex issue arising from the distortion of the signal measured within a pulse forming line when the sensor is mounted close to a spark gap will be clarified.
Other issues relating to calibration of the sensors will then be discussed and calibration techniques presented that employ a number of different high-frequency arrangements. Finally, typical case studies will be described and conclusions drawn.
