Improvements in dielectric measurements with a resonant cavity

A description is given of the use of an automatic network analyzer (ANA) which determines with very high accuracy the resonant frequency and intrinsic quality factor of a microwave resonant cavity. With this technique, the complex permittivity of dielectric material samples can be measured with low...

Description
Summary:A description is given of the use of an automatic network analyzer (ANA) which determines with very high accuracy the resonant frequency and intrinsic quality factor of a microwave resonant cavity. With this technique, the complex permittivity of dielectric material samples can be measured with low uncertainty. The methods described make use of the high speed and built-in mismatch correction capability of an ANA.< >
