ABSTRACT:
A portable microwave leakage detector comprises a dipole antenna and a hot carrier diode connected in parallel with a light emitting diode, the circuit incorporating minimum solder joints and affording maximum sensitivity without moving parts such that the detector circuit does not decay with time. The dipole antenna is oriented diagonally in a detector case so that the user of the detector automatically presents the antenna to the radiating microwave field (or leakage field) at a maximum receiving attitude with respect to the field. The detector can be utilized to determine whether a microwave oven or any other device is leaking radiation beyond limits imposed by the Food and Drug Administration.
