Abstract
- A wideband <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$E_{\textit {z}}E_{x}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> probe covering the frequency range of 1.4–7.0 GHz is proposed through the integration of a strip line magic-T. By combining a Marchand balun with its complementary structure, the magic-T achieves a wide working frequency band. The magic-T can effectively streamline complex data processing, enabling the proposed probe to offer a flexible instrument selection and achieve high measurement efficiency. A new calibration kit is further developed for the proposed probe. It effectively addresses the challenges associated with the asymmetry and probe movement commonly encountered in traditional probe calibration. A prototype of the probe is fabricated and measured. The results demonstrate a wide 1:5 working band, over 23 dB unwanted field suppression, and a good isotropy.
