Abstract—This paper presents a receiver-based attenuation measurement system supporting 1 MHz to 1 GHz frequencies for a 0 to 80 dB attenuation range with an uncertainty of 0.006 dB. The system is designed to efficiently support the change of frequency and connector interface without requiring time-consuming system modifications. The proposed approach is benchmarked through a detailed comparison with a traceable calibrated attenuator up to 80 dB.
