A resonant ring method is shown to yield high quality measurements. Inductive and capacitive components of the equivalent circuit of the step discontinuity have been measured for several step ratios. The results agree well with theoretical values available in the literature.58 p.Engineering, Electronics and Electrical.Thesis
