Abstract :
This paper presents the investigation on material characteristic in gelatin-based phantom, which observed through dielectric measurement that is performed from 1 to 6 GHz. Gelatin and water are used in the investigation. The study focuses on dielectric variation due to the ratio of gelatin and water. The obtained results in this study are useful for the development of realistic human brain phantom.
