Qualitative and Quantitative Characterization of Liquids from TDR Measurements

Time-domain Reflectometry (TDR) is a wel l-establ ished technique for the development of microwave sensors devoted to the die lectr ic character izat ion of mater ials . This renders TDR an appeal ing method for a var iety of monitor ing appl icat ions. Ti l l now, TDR has been successful ly appl ied to solve hydrological or soi l prospect ing problems, though i ts adopt ion in many other cases...
