Abstract :
Nondestructive microwave dielectric measurements based on open-ended rectangular waveguide and coaxial line sensors are considered. The errors in the dielectric constant measurements due to the uncertainties of the measuring instruments are calculated and compared for the two types of sensors. A comparison based on advantages and disadvantages for both sensors is also presented
