Wr. Humbert et Wr. Scott, A NEW TECHNIQUE FOR MEASURING THE PERMITTIVITY AND LOSS TANGENT OF CYLINDRICAL DIELECTRIC RODS, IEEE microwave and guided wave letters, 6(7), 1996, pp. 262-264
A new technique is presented for measuring the permittivity and loss t
angent of cylindrical dielectric rods. It is a resonant technique and
exhibits highly accurate results for low-loss dielectrics. The finite-
element method is used to model the measurement fixture, Also, a proce
dure is presented to characterize the surface resistance of the conduc
ting walls, Experimental results are compared to previously reported v
alues and are in excellent agreement.
