Abstract :
Materials with low dielectric constants offer great chances for applications were losses, low thermal influences and phase stability are important. One of these applications is earth observation by SAR´s. Syntactic foams is a promising material but its properties with respect to homogeneity are not well investigated. A new method provides qualitative characterization with good geometrical resolution.
