D152.1 Technical Abstract: The reasons for interest in the dielectric properties of materials are discussed. Terms are defined and principles involving dielectric properties of materials are summarized. Measurement techniques for determining dielectric properties of agricultural materials in the radio-fr cy (RF) and microwave ranges are identified with reference citations given for detailed information. Finally, a few new potential applications for dielectric properties of materials are discussed and a few precautions are given for reliable determination of such properties by RF and microwave measurements. |
