Abstract
A microwave technique for measuring of the height of a thin layer of fluid or a solid coating on a metallic surface using a planar microstrip transmission line structure is presented. A device was designed to monitor the height of a film of water up to about 1 mm. The method produced consistent results and can be adapted for use without microwave frequency measurement devices.<>
