Abstract

PURPOSE:To stabilize a detection of large electric power by connecting a thermocouple to a microstrip line on a dielectric substrate so that a signal to be measured is passed through it and detecting the electric power by a heat generated in a resistor of the thermocouple. CONSTITUTION:Metal foils 3, 4 of different kinds forming the thermocouple are connected in a space of the microstrip line 2 provided on the dielectric substrate 1, and the electric power of the signal to be measured is detected by the heat generated with the signal passing through the thermocouples 3, 4. Capacitors 12, 12' for interrupting DC are provided on the microstrip line 2 and high frequency chokes 7, 7' are provided on voltage leading lines 6, 6' from the thermocouples 3, 4, thereby DC output only is taken out from taking- out parts 8, 9 for detected voltage. Besides, other thermocouples 3', 4' made by the same material as that of the thermocouples 3, 4 are provided on the substrate 1 and electrically inverse connection is made with the thermocouples 3, 4, thereby a temperature rise for the entire substrate 1 is canceled.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) In the conventional power detector described above, the combination of a directional coupler and a diode detector can be configured on a microstrip line, and the detection output is relatively large, making circuit design easy. On the other hand, when the power to be measured increases, there are disadvantages such as the directional coupler becomes loosely coupled and errors become large, and the input power of the diode detector increases and there is a risk of damaging the diode.
