Determining intrinsic microwave properties or extrinsic performance of materials is important for a variety of applications, including wireless propagation, antenna and microwave circuit design, and remote sensing, among others. This practical engineering guide to microwave material measurements discusses both laboratory and manufacturing/field environments. Modern technology has created a need to adapt microwave measurement methods for in-line quality assurance, in-situ process control, and field inspection of materials and components. Various configurations for free-space measurements are...
