  • Abstract
    The dielectric properties of skin layers, which are the epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous fat, were measured using several measurement systems. Measurements were conducted in vitro from 0.5 GHz to 1 THz. Measurement results indicated good agreement between each measurement system at a tissue temperature of approximately 35 °C.
