STUDY OF RADAR ABSORBER MATERIALS

Abstract

A microwave interferometer apparatus was used for precision measuring of insertion loss and insertion phase in X-band. Calculations for conversion of the insertion loss and phase data to dielectric constant and loss tangent were made for 1/4-, 3/8-, and 1/2-in.-thick samples of lossy dielectric materials. A typical graph for conversion of the computed data on 3/8-in.-thick samples up to dielectric constant of 5.0 is included as an initial correlation of the interferometer results with those obtained on a microwave dielectrometer is given.
