Özet

A free-space time-domain method is proposed to retrieve dielectric constant (epsilon r), conductivity (sigma e), and thickness (d) of metal-backed low-loss dielectric samples using calibration-independent reflected power peak measurements. Its algorithm is validated by numerical calculations and simulations (CST Microwave Studio) using a sine-modulated Gaussian window. A sensitivity analysis is followed to examine its performance considering the dependencies of reflected power peaks with respect to epsilon r and sigma e. Free-space time-domain measurements have been implemented after transforming frequency-domain measurements into time-domain ones to extract epsilon r, sigma e, and d of polypropylene, polyethylene, and polyoxymethylene samples.
