Thisdiagram shows loci of constant power as a function of the admittances presented at theplane of the tube window. Admittances are normalized in terms of the characteristicadmittance of the wave guide. cient sink margin must be provided at the wavelength where the couplingis a maximum, this means that an of sink margin exists at the lowfrequency end of the band. This is illustrated by the impeda
