Rk. Mongia et al., ACCURATE MEASUREMENT OF Q-FACTORS OF ISOLATED DIELECTRIC RESONATORS, IEEE transactions on microwave theory and techniques, 42(8), 1994, pp. 1463-1467
In this paper, a set-up used to accurately measure the resonant freque
ncies and Q-factors of isolated dielectric resonators is described. Th
e measured resonant frequencies and Q-factors of first five lowest ord
er modes of two cylindrical dielectric resonators of relative permitti
vity 38.0 and 79.7 respectively are reported. The measured values are
compared with those of rigorous numerical methods available in the lit
erature.
