Abstract
Dielectric properties of three hybrids of shelled, yellow-dent field c orn were measured at different bulk densities and moisture contents in a Styrofoam container located between two ho rn antennas in free spac e. Relative complex permittivities were determined from measurements o f attenuation and phase shift at frequencies from 11 to 18 GHz and at temperatures from 4 to 45 degrees C. The grain moisture content ranged from about 9% to 19%, wet basis.
