1. Q meter

   A Q meter is a piece of equipment used in the testing of radio frequency circuits. It has been largely replaced in professional laboratories by other types of impedance measuring device, though it is still in use among radio amateurs. It was developed at Boonton Radio Corporation in Boonton, New Jersey in 1934 by William D. Loughlin. A Q meter measures Q, the quality factor of a circuit, which expresses how much energy is dissipated per cycle in a non-ideal reactive circuit: This expression applies to an RF and microwave filter, bandpass LC filter, or any resonator. It also can be applied to an inductor or capacitor at a chosen frequency. For inductors Where is the reactance of the inductor, is the inductance, is the angular frequency and is the resistance of the inductor. The resistance represents the loss in the inductor, mainly due to the resistance of the wire. For LC band pass circuits and filters: Where is the resonant frequency and is the filter bandwidth. In a band pass filter using an LC resonant circuit, when the loss of the inductor increases, its Q is reduced, and so the bandwidth of the filter is increased. In a coaxial cavity filter, there are no inductors and capacitors, but the cavity has an equivalent LC model with losses and the Q factor can be applied as well.

Examples of q meter in a Sentence

1. Frankie Dettori:

   I passed the 200 (meter mark) and I was a spent force. I think the ground had a lot to do with it.

2. Susie Lee:

   I just started looking (at online dating options) and very quickly realized how many things are out there and how immediately my 'creepy meter' went up.

3. Jamiel Shaw:

   I felt happy for the first time, your happy meter is turned off. When that happened, I felt good. I felt hope. This is the hope that Obama thought he was gon na get. That was false hope.

4. Aaron Liao:

   You can say to it ‘Find me men’s shorts’ and I can give you turn-by-turn walking directions to every instance of men’s shirts, whether they are inside Bloomingdales, Abercrombie and Fitch, or Nordstrom, it’s amazingly accurate. We boast one meter of accuracy, which is effectively the difference between leading you to men’s button-down shirts and the casual t-shirts that are right next to them. Three feet of accuracy means I can lead you directly to the soap versus the shampoo that’s right next to it.

5. Marco Krieger:

   It’s not a 100 meter sprint, we at Fiocruz are prepared for a marathon.
