Abstract-A new microwave method based on calibrationindependent measurements has been proposed for non-ambiguous complex permittivity determination of liquid materials. We have derived a function in terms of the first-reflection coefficient of the sample using raw complex scattering parameter measurements of three measurement configurations. We have verified the proposed method from measurements of two liquid test samples with the available reference data in the literature.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
