Abstract
A microwave electric field intensity meter for single high-power radio wave pulses is described. A surface acoustic wave (SAW) dielectric aco ustic line is used which has nonlinear electroacoustic properties and is comprised of two transducers, The first (nonlinear) transducer is a ffected by a microwave electric field and provides the SAW excitation due to nonlinear effects. A delayed SAW signal, carrying information a bout the electric field strength, is received by a linear interdigital transducer.
