DIN EN 62810
Cylindrical cavity method to measure the complex permittivity of low-loss dielectric rods (IEC 62810:2015); German version EN 62810:2015
Zylindrisches Hohlraumverfahren zur Messung der komplexen Permittivität von verlustarmen dielektrischen Stäben (IEC 62810:2015); Deutsche Fassung EN 62810:2015
Overview
With this measuring method the dielectric properties of low-loss materials in coaxial cables and electronic devices for use in microwave systems can be determined. It uses the TM010 mode in a circular cylindrical cavity and presents accurate measurement results of a dielectric rod sample, where the effect of sample insertion holes is taken into account accurately on the basis of the rigorous electromagnetic analysis. The committee responsible is DKE/UK 412.4 "Passive HF- und Mikrowellenbauelemente" ("RF and microwave passive components") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
