Abstract Dielectric properties of three
hybrids of shelled, yellow-dent field corn were measured at different bulk
densities and moisture contents in a Styrofoam container located between two
horn antennas in free space. Relative complex permittivities were determined
from measurements of attenuation and phase shift at frequencies from 11 to 18
GHz and at temperatures from 4 to Key Words: Permittivity, dielectric constant, loss factor, corn, moisture content, bulk density, temperature |
