ABSTRACT

In this paper, a new technique is presented to determine the complex permittivity of each layer for a bi-layer dielectric material. The bi-layer material sample is placed in an X-band short-circuited rectangular waveguide WR90. Expression for the S11 parameter of the bi-layer dielectric material as a function of complex permittivity of each layer is developed. To estimate the complex permittivity of each layer's dielectric material; the square sums of errors between the simulated with the HFSS software and calculated S-parameter are minimized using a nonlinear optimization algorithm. The complex permittivity of each layer for a bi-layer dielectric material such as FR4-Teflon and Teflon-Plexiglas are determined at the X-band frequencies.
