Dielectric properties at microwave frequencies studied in partially filled cylindrical TE011 cavities.
To measure mean complex dielectric constants of heterogeneous materials with high dielectric losses (like emulsions or granular materials), partially filled TE011 cavities with a time consuming calibration procedure have been used [Persch, 1997], [Risman, 1971], since no suitable theory could be found in literature. In this work, an analytical solution is derived and tested by experiments and numerical results, showing a quantitative agreement, thus making calibration procedures for the measurement of dielectric properties in TE011 resonators unnecessary.
