9781527769205: Primary Radio-Frequency Standardization by Use of the Cathode-Ray Oscillograph

Synopsis

This book details the development and validation of a highly accurate method for determining radio frequencies, known as primary radio-frequency standardization, utilizing a tuning fork with a precisely known frequency as the reference point. The method involves comparing the frequency of the tuning fork to that of radio-frequency generating sets using a cathode-ray oscillograph to create Lissajous figures, which are patterns that reveal the ratio between the two frequencies. The author, a respected physicist, describes how this method was used to calibrate a standard wave meter, which is a device for measuring radio frequencies, allowing for precise and reliable measurements in the field of radio broadcasting. The book not only provides a detailed account of the experimental setup, procedure, and results but also discusses the challenges encountered and the significance of the findings, making it a valuable resource for researchers, engineers, and anyone interested in the history and development of radio technology.
