Abstract :
We discuss the results of three NIST-organized intercomparisons of dielectric and magnetic material characterization at RF-microwave frequencies. Two studies used the broadband coaxial air line technique and the third the air-filled stripline resonator. Variability of up to /spl plusmn/25% was evident in the measured data.
