Abstract :
A convenient, automated, self-checking method for the determination of the complex permeability μ and the permittivity ε is described, using automatic network analyzers. The sample partially fills a section of waveguide or coaxial line, and the sample length has to be known only to the nearest quarter-wavelength in air
