Description

Multi-frequency-point dielectric constant measuring device based on stepped impedance resonance structure
Technical Field
The invention relates to a measuring device, in particular to a multi-frequency-point dielectric constant measuring device based on a stepped impedance resonance structure.
Background
The dielectric constant of a material is one of the most important properties in the design of microwave radio frequency devices. The dielectric constant of the material does not become constant with frequency changes, which can cause dispersion in the transmission line, resulting in pulse distortion in ultra-wideband systems. Therefore, the characteristics of the broadband dielectric constant material need to be well understood to allow precise design of microwave rf devices.
The dielectric constant measuring method of microwave frequency band material is mainly divided into resonance method and non-resonance method. In the non-resonant method, there is mainly a transmission-reflection technique. The non-resonant method for realizing broadband dielectric constant measurement is relatively easy to realize, however, the non-resonant method is influenced by calibration errors, irreproducibility caused by multiple measurements, mismatch of connectors and impedance and the like, so that the measurement result error is large.
A more accurate method of testing the dielectric constant of a material than a non-resonant method is the resonant method. The resonance method is to provide an accurate dielectric constant by full-wave analysis of electromagnetic field distribution using a special resonance structure, such as a resonant cavity, a dielectric resonance, and the like. However, most non-resonant methods for testing the dielectric constant of the material can only measure the dielectric constant value at a certain frequency point, and cannot obtain the dielectric constant change rule of the material in a wide frequency band. Therefore, the broadband dielectric constant measurement method is a very meaningful test method.
