Time Domain Measurement of Microwave Absorbers 9-16 GHz Frequency Band.

Abstract

The report describes a time domain metrology system built to extend the measurement capability of the properties of radar absorbing materials used on aircraft and missiles. A system is presently operating in the Air Force Avionics Laboratory, WPAFB, which measures the transient response of subnanosecond risetime pulses and calculates the dielectric constant epsilon* and the magnetic permeability mu* over the frequency range 0.1-10 GHz. The system to be described will extend this capability through the frequency range 9-16 GHz. (Author)
