Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for identifying a sample in a container and a measuring device for this purpose.

- the substance to be examined is introduced into a cavity resonator and the detuning of the cavity resonator caused by the presence of the substance is measured by sweeping and measuring the resonance curve by varying the irradiated frequency. From the shift of the resonant frequency and the increase of the resonant half-value width or quality change of the resonator, the dielectric constant and thus also the water content of the substance can be derived with known substance composition and density.
- DE 40 04 119 A1 discloses a method for determining the material moisture with the aid of a cavity resonator, which permits a specific selection of the field profile of the cavity resonator in the region of the sample to be examined, material moisture content and material density independently of one another for a known material using a Calibration curve to be determined, wherein the determined by stopping the resonance curve resonant frequency and the half-width of the resonance line are determined and evaluated. Again, it is necessary that the substance to be examined is introduced in the form of a sample in the cavity resonator.

- the methods mentioned are based on HF technology in the determination of the complex dielectric constant of a sample of known dimensions. This means that the geometry and the exact dimensions of the sample must be known in order to determine the real from a measured quality and frequency shift and to determine the imaginary part of the complex dielectric constant.
- Another disadvantage is that for determining the dielectric constant, a sensor must be brought into contact with the sample, which is precisely for dangerous samples such. As acetone or other combustible liquids, should be avoided.

- On the left is the coaxial coupling line with an approx. 3 mm coupling loop (surface normal in the z-direction), on the right an equally sized and equally oriented one
- the resonant frequency of the TE 0 i ⁇ mode of the ceramic cylinder can be approximated by the formula
- a bottle 2 with a liquid 3 as a sample is measured at a variable distance z (dashed circles) from the cover panel 10.
- the resonator 8 was connected with its two coaxial coupling lines 4, 5 to the reflection and transmission port of a vectorial network analyzer 1 (Hewlett Packard 8752A).
- the frequency-dependent transmission was measured with an RF output power of 0 dBm.
- the liquid-filled bottle was positioned at different distances z from the resonator.

- the distance between the sample container and the resonator should be in a range between 0 and 5 millimeters. In the case of the straight lines shown in FIG. 5, this corresponds in each case to the six values with the highest reciprocal qualities and resonance frequencies.

In the field of medical applications measurements of the water content of the skin (hydration) would be conceivable.
- the diameter of the opening in the metallic housing is to be optimized in each case for the vibration mode used.
- the resonator is excited in each case in a Schwindungsmode with low radiation losses. It is conceivable that for applications other than those mentioned here, the determination of the quality in place of the determination of the resonant frequency is sufficient for a clear identification of the sample.
