Summary of Test Method4.1 Substrate specimens, with metal cladding rem

The measured values of resonant frequency of the striplineresonator and the half-power frequencies are used to compute the relative permittivity (dielectric cons

Significance and Use5.1 Permittivity and dissipation factor are fundamental design parameters for design of microwave circuitry. Permittivity playsa principal role in determ

25、ining the wavelength and the impedance of transmission lines. Dissipation factor (along with copperlosses) influence attenuation and power losses.5.2 This test method is suitable for polymeric materials having permittivity in the order of two to eleven. Such materials arepopular in applications of s
