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.
The dielectric measurement facility in the microwave frequency band was established in the Department of Electrical Engineering in the year 2010 with CARE grants from IIT Kanpur. The facility is based on the Agilent Technologies 85070E Dielectric Probe Kit, which comes along with the vector network analyzer and associated microwave components. The established facility enables one to determine the intrinsic electromagnetic properties of wide range of materials in the broad frequency range of 200 MHz to 20 GHz.
