Background

In recent years, there is lot of interest to explore the use of microwaves for imaging, nondestructive testing, characterization and remote sensing of materials, media and objects. It has got application in a number of areas spanning over many branches of science and engineering. The main advantage offered by microwaves is that they can provide information about the inner structure of the media or objects by carrying out measurements at the surface. The determination of complex permittivity of the material or the object under test is the basic problem in the microwave characterization, imaging and sensing.
