ABSTRACT:
A variety of techniques for deriving cavity linewidth that share the use of multiple input sources of known frequency separation is disclosed allowing the measurement of resonator cavity linewidth. Among the techniques include a double peak ratio method for measuring cavity linewidth through use of a low pass filter. The double peak ratio method allows vertical measurements which are noise immune and independent of swept frequency errors as a method of determining cavity linewidth in a straightforward and accurate manner.
