A Novel Method for Characterizing the Surface Resistance of Two Conducting Plates Shorted at Both Ends of a Dielectric Resonator

Abstract

ABSIlRACT A novel method for characterizing the surface resistance of two conducting plates shorted at both ends of a dielectric resonator is given in this paper. It utilizes only one dielectric resonator that can resonate with both TE,, and TE921 mode at same frequency. Thlhe theoretical relat'ions and experimental results are also given. The described method has been provedto be convenient, relatively accurate, and of practical usefulness.
