Abstract :
A microwave method for determining the electrical properties of lossy liquids is presented. The method is optimised for measuring the complex permittivity of human tissue equivalent liquids typically used together with human head phantoms in SAR (specific absorption rate) measurements. The method presented has a considerably better performance than conventional methods
