Abstract :
Measurement data for the complex permittivity of seawater at 1.413 GHz for salinities of 30.002 psu, 34.997 psu and 38.274 psu is used to construct a polynomial model function. The coefficients of the polynomial are determined by minimizing the error between the model function and the data in the least square sense. The results are compared with the Klein Swift model function and the differences are discussed.
