Abstract

The performance of dielectric materials at RF frequencies is becoming ever more important with increase in the use of electronic circuits operating at high frequencies. The relative complex permittivity of printed circuit board materials is an important parameter that affects circuit performance. This paper presents the results of studies made for measuring the relative complex permittivity of PCB sheet material in the frequency range of 100 MHz-1 GHz using a vector network analyzer
