Synopsis

Master the science of measuring material properties at microwave frequencies.

This guide explains how transmission/reflection and short-circuit line methods determine complex permittivity and permeability in waveguides and coaxial lines, with practical steps and stability criteria.

The book presents a clear view of the main techniques, from off-resonance measurements to optimized, reference-plane–independent solutions. You’ll learn how to use scattering data, address uncertainties, and apply numerical methods to extract reliable material parameters across wide frequency ranges.
  • How transmission-line and short-circuit approaches translate S-parameters into permittivity and permeability
  • Ways to minimize instability near resonances and to manage reference-plane position
  • Uncertainty analysis that accounts for length, positioning, and measurement errors
  • Practical considerations for coaxial and waveguide setups, including corrections and gap effects
Ideal for researchers and engineers working in microwave materials, this edition supports informed, nondestructive testing and accurate characterization across broad frequencies.
